'This important book examines some of the complexities of
intersectionality theory in feminist theory in general and in
relation to legal issues in particular. In doing so it both
problematises and promotes it as central to contemporary 'glocal'
feminist theory and activism.'Nira Yuval-Davis, Professor in Gender
& Ethnic Studies, School of Social Sciences, Media and Cultural
Studies, University of East London'After almost twenty years of
feminist discussion of gender’s intersection with other categories
of identity, a collection like this one is way overdue. By
addressing tensions between structural and cultural difference and
alternative approaches, the collection poses hard questions and
offers fresh, open-ended perspectives. This is an invaluable
critical assessment of what has become a foundational idea in
feminist studies.'Rosemary Hennessy, Director, Center for the Study
of Women, Gender, and Sexuality, Rice University
