Women and Social Transformation brings three women from different countries together into dialogue.

Judith Butler is the most referenced author in current feminist literature, and we find the latest developments of her work in this book; Lidia Puigvert has recently reached international relevance with her contribution about the other women, who have not yet had a voice in feminism; and Elizabeth Beck-Gernsheim complements this debate with her work about immigrant women.

The authors argue the need to open feminism to the plurality of all women's voices, especially those who are in the margins.

Women and Social Transformation is a debate, and speaks about transforming gender relations, taking a distance from postmodern stances, and insisting on the need for egalitarian dialogue among women.

This book gives back the meaning of the feminist struggle.
