In the years since #MeToo misogyny sexism and gender based violence have flooded the news and
our social media timelines. Anti-privilege politics and intersectionality have entered the
mainstream-systematically trolled on one end of the spectrum embraced to questionable ends
on the other. But what has this increased visibility entailed other than the marketisation of
the feminist struggle? Feminism for the World argues that we have been witnessing an erasure
of feminism as a long-term tradition with its many conflicting histories and geographies of
struggle elided and forgotten. In this ground-breaking collection eight leading
international figures of contemporary feminism highlight feminist struggles and traditions from
the Global South presenting feminism as a project that is impossible without international
solidarity from the West. In doing so they revive an authentic internationalism and propose
paths for present and future generations.
