Right-Wing Women

<''Feminism is hated because women are hated''

Why do some women support right-wing movements, even though they curtail their freedoms? Andrea Dworkin''s timeless, visionary analysis goes to the heart of this contradiction, exploring the Right''s positions on abortion, sexuality, racism and antifeminism, and showing how it attempts both to exploit and to quiet women''s deepest fears of male violence. The right-wing woman, Dworkin contends, acquiesces to male authority for protection and some semblance of power: because ''survival depends on it''.

''Groundbreaking'' Bella Abzug

''Her razor-sharp analysis of why so many women are attracted to a politics that despises their rights is more relevant today than ever'' Guardian<>
