This book is an introduction to feminism that covers three centuries of history. The author, Nuria Varela, answers questions such as: Who were the suffragettes? Where does radical feminism come from? Why is Marxism and feminism spoken of as an ill-matched marriage? Why has feminism been vilified and ridiculed? Why have feminists been treated as 'butches', ugly or sexually unsatisfied women? How and where does the expression 'gender violence' arise? What is the relationship between feminism and traffic accidents? What does masculinity consist of? From these questions, among others, the author reviews three centuries of making and unmaking the world, of bringing to light fascinating leaders, an overwhelming theoretical body and a social agitation that no other movement has managed to maintain for so long.
