Today, feminism is as important as ever. Betty Friedan's musings, to take the actions needed to bring women into the mainstream of American society, now; full equality for women, in fully equal partnership with men," still hold fervently true in current society. Young readers still fighting for equality today need to know how the movement began years ago, with such basics as the right to vote, the right to birth control, and the right to equal employment. Leading historian Jules Archer's account offers fascinating biographies of Susan B. Anthony, Margaret Sanger, and Betty Friedan, with a full background of the political organizations they worked for and against. Forty-four percent of general American history books do not even mention the struggle for women's suffrage, and 65 percent fail to record the name of Susan B. Anthony. Even more young readers have never heard the names of Margaret Sanger and Betty Friedan. As far as most of these books are concerned, women are invisible in American history. But these women dared to defy convention, at great personal risk, for the cause of sexual and gender equality. Their stories must be remembered. With a new foreword by feminist author Naomi Wolf, The Feminist Revolution relies heavily on letters, diaries, and other personal forms of communication to tell the story of women's rights in this country. Part of Sky Pony Press's revitalization of the Jules Archer History for Young Readers, series, this book is a must-read introduction to the Feminist Revolution for all young adults.

Vue d'aujourd'hui, l'histoire du féminisme américain depuis les années 1960 apparaît comme un drame en trois actes. Dans un premier temps, le mouvement de libération des femmes naît comme une force insurrectionnelle visant à faire voler en éclats une politique technicisée et un imaginaire social-démocrate qui avait occulté l'injustice de genre. Ensuite, alors que les énergies utopiques commencent à s'épuiser, le féminisme est aspiré par la politique de l'identité. Ses élans transformateurs se trouvent canalisés vers un nouvel imaginaire politique qui place la "différence" au premier plan. Passant de la redistribution à la reconnaissance, le mouvement déplace son attention vers la politique culturelle au moment où un néolibéralisme naissant déclare la guerre à l'égalité sociale. Enfin, depuis que le néolibéralisme est entré en crise, les conditions semblent réunies pour voir un féminisme revigoré rejoindre d'autres forces d'émancipation cherchant à assujettir des marchés déchaînés à un contrôle démocratique. Ainsi, le mouvement pourrait récupérer son esprit insurrectionnel tout en approfondissant les idées qui le caractérisent : sa critique structurelle de l'androcentrisme inhérent au capitalisme, son analyse systémique de la domination masculine et ses propositions d'amendements, infornnées par le genre, de la démocratie et de la justice. Écrits entre 1984 et 2010, les articles qui composent ce livre donnent à lire la trajectoire théorique et politique d'une théoricienne féministe majeure de notre temps
