Klappentext "This volume offers a timely examination of the special characteristics of different, sometimes clashing, Chinese feminisms when the "#METOO" movement sweeps over the world under the mantle of global capitalism"-- Zusammenfassung In this timely volume, Zhu and Xiao offer an examination of the ways in which Chinese feminist ideas have developed since the mid-1990s. By juxtaposing the plural “feminisms” with “Chinese characteristics”, they both underline the importance of integrating Chinese culture, history, and tradition in the discussions of Chinese feminisms.
