Informationen zum Autor By Laurie Penny Klappentext Modern culture is obsessed with controlling women's bodies. Our societies are saturated with images of unreal, idealised female beauty whilst real female bodies and the women who inhabit them are alienated from their own personal and political potential. Under modern capitalism, women are both consumers and consumed: Meat Market offers strategies for resisting this gory cycle of consumption, exposing how the trade in female flesh extends into every part of women's political selfhood. Zusammenfassung A feminist dissection of women's bodies as the fleshy fulcrum of capitalist cannibalism! whereby women are both consumers and consumed.
