Presents a twenty-first century vision for Italian feminist thought.

Italian feminists of postwar Europe were arguably the most influential group of thinkers and actors to transform the society of late-twentieth-century Italy. Engaging profound issues such as class, labor, and rural and urban disparity, they theorized sexual difference, mounted campaigns such as Wages for Housework, and shared experiences of the everyday and the extraordinary in literature, film, and theater. Now, a quarter into the twenty-first century, amid a new generation of intellectuals and artists, this collection of essays and critical stories explores ongoing developments in Italian feminist thought, its current debates, and future trajectories. In this volume, some of the most celebrated writers in Italy dialogue with an international cohort of scholars to construct a community for new ideas between intellectuals, artists, and activists. The result is an inclusive multilingual and multicultural narrative about feminist theory and practice that makes the case for a just--and, therefore, feminist--society.
