Feminist Waves, Feminist Generations: Life Stories from the AcademyHokulani K. Aikau, Karla A. Erickson, Jennifer L. Pierce U of Minnesota Press, 2007 - 357 pages Feminist Waves, Feminist Generations challenges the static figuring of feminist generations that positions the second wave of feminist scholars against a homogeneous third wave. Based on life stories from contemporary feminist scholars, this volume emphasizes how feminism develops unevenly over time and across institutions and, ultimately, offers a new paradigm for theorizing the intersections between generations and feminist waves of thought.
