Bryson’s Feminist Debates(1999) is particularly useful. It is comprehensive and written
accessibly. Chapters 1 and 2 contain a valuable introduction to the feminist landscape.
Bryson has also edited with Georgina Blakeley a volume entitled The Impact of Feminism
on Political Concepts and Debates (Manchester: Manchester University Press, 2007).
Feminism/Postmodernism(London: Routledge, 1990) with Nicholson as the editor contains
a series of essays written at a time when postmodernism was beginning to make an impact.
Yeatman and Hartsock’s essays are especially useful. Greer’s The Whole Woman(1999) is
lively and gives the reader a very good flavour of feminism as it emerged in the 1960s and
1970s. Engels’s The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State(1972) has been
much commented upon, but is worth reading in the original. Shanley and Pateman’s Feminist
Interpretations and Political Theory(1991) contains critiques on a wide range of classical
political thinkers and more recent theorists; accessible and full of insights. Funk and Mueller’s
Gender Politics and Post-Communism(1993) has articles on the position of women after
the collapse of the Communist Party states; some very useful material here.Weblinks
