"Maori and Pakeha, lesbian and heterosexual, older and younger, working inside or outside universities, the two dozen contributors to Feminist Voices present here their feminist analyses of Aotearoa/New Zealand. They discuss subjects as diverse as rugby, spirituality, the politics of work,science, medicine, education, speaking on the marae, racism, Maori theatre, lesbian studies, women and the State, feminist politics, and what is presented to us as history. The result is diverse, lively, and challenging reading for students of women's studies and feminist studies, or simply thoseseeking to understand further the position of women in Aotearoa/New Zealand in the 1990s."--Publisher description.
