Am I That Name?
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Throughout this book Riley does an excellent job of grappling with the idea of 'women' as a category that has been socially constructed. This book takes a historical look at how this socially constructed category of 'women' has shifted. In this compelling piece Riley disects the relationship between 'women' and feminism. "Am I That Name?" addresses how feminism is a battle ground for the unstable category of 'women'.
