Review Quotes:
'Not only does this volume break new ground by launching a discussion on the interplay of gender with civil society, but it is also a fascinating collection of stories about women taking on all-powerful-all-present patriarchies-and questions for reflection by feminists, especially in the west.' - International Labour Review
'An emancipatory terrain for both men and women.'- International Labour Review
