"Neoliberalism and Feminism" Workshop

Feminist Movements in a Reactionary Era - "Neoliberalism and Feminism" Panel

The growth of neoliberalism has had complicated implications for feminism. How should we assess its impact on NGOs and NGO-ization? What are its consequences for women from poor, indigenous communities, ethnic, sexual and religious minorities? What lessons can feminists learn from the past about the alliances and coalitions they should form in the future?
