The Power of Feminist Theory Domination, Resistance, Solidarity

In The Power of Feminist Theory, Amy Allen diagnoses the inadequacies of previous feminist conceptions of power and draws on the work of a diverse group of theorists of power, including Michel Foucault, Judith Butler, and Hannah Arendt, in order to construct a new feminist conception of power. Allen illuminates the interrelatedness of domination, resistance, and solidarity, enabling the reader to understand and theorize on these three modalities of power.
