Making Waves and Drawing Lines: The Politics of Defining the Vicissitudes of Feminism

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  25 March 2020

Abstract

If there actually is a third wave of feminism, it is too close to the second wave for its definition to be clear and uncontroversial, a fact which emphasizes the political nature ofdechring the existence of this third wave. Through an examination of some third wave literature, a case is made for emphasizing the continuity of the second and third waves without blurring the differences between older and younger feminists.
