Description
Catherine Mackinnon and Andrea Dworkin are two of the most important voices in contemporary radical feminism. Their ideas have had enormous impact through their work as activists, media figures and theorists. Both Mackinnon's innovations in the development of jurisprudence relating to sexual harassment, and her work with Dworkin on the regulation of pornography have placed them at the centre of important feminist debates.
In this volume Judith Grant outlines the work of Dworkin and Mackinnon and situates it in the context of the history of feminism and feminist theory, and considers its influence on contemporary social and political thought.
