Women's Activism and Feminist Agency in Mozambique and Nicaragua

In "Women's Activism and Feminist Agency in Mozambique and Nicaragua," Jennifer Leigh Disney investigates the contours of womenOCOs emancipation outside the framework of liberal democracy and a market economy. She interviews 146 women and men in the two countries to explore the comparative contribution of womenOCOs participation in subsistence and informal economies, political parties and civil society organizations. She also discusses military struggles against colonialism and imperialism in fostering feminist agency to provide a fascinating look at how each movement evolved and how it changed in a post-revolutionary climate.
