S’il existe une question féministe qui mérite approfondissement parce qu’elle est compliquée et recouvre des enjeux fondamentaux pour nos existences, c’est bien celle des imbrications structurelles entre l’oppression fondée sur le sexe et les oppressions fondées sur l’appartenance à une race, ethnie ou culture, regroupées ici sous l’appellation “racisme”. Nouvelles Questions Féministes revient ainsi, dans le présent numéro, sur la thématique amorcée dans le premier volume de cet ensemble de deux numéros consacrés au sexisme et au racisme. En effet, qu’il s’agisse de l’imposition du voile ou de son interdiction, de la prostitution, des mariages non consentis, des violences ou des discriminations sur les lieux de travail, l’oppression sexiste ne s’inscrit ni ne se lit dans le corps abstrait de “la femme” universelle et anhistorique, mais dans celui de femmes particulières et particularisées, dans un contexte social déterminé, caractérisé par d’autres rapports de domination.

Explorations in Contemporary Feminist The Battle Against Oppression for Writers of Color, Lesbian and Transgender Communities is a work that bridges issues of oppression across diverse communities within the contemporary feminist movement. Fictional writings by authors such as Toni Morrison, Maya Angelou, Rose Tremain, and others are addressed in regard to their content of social messages. The major focus of this book is the need for personal-redefinition by members of marginalized communities seeking a ground of self-determination and respect, as expressed by various authors. The connections between authors' perspectives are rasied and a critical gaze is directed at the claim that personal choice equates with freedom.

As a subject, post-colonial studies stands at the intersection of debates about race, colonialism, gender, politics and language. In the language of post-colonial studies, some words are new, others are familiar words charged with new significance.

The agenda of contemporary western feminism focuses on equal participation in work and education, reproductive rights, and sexual freedom. But what does feminism mean to the women of rural India who work someone else's fields, young Thai girls in the sex industry in Bangkok, or Filipino maids working for wealthy women in Hong Kong? In this 1998 book, Chilla Bulbeck presents a bold challenge to the hegemony of white, western feminism in this incisive and wide-ranging exploration of the lived experiences of 'women of colour'. She examines debates on human rights, family relationships, sexuality, and notions of the individual and community to show how their meanings and significance in different parts of the world contest the issues which preoccupy contemporary Anglophone feminists. She then turns the focus back on Anglo culture to illustrate how the theories and politics of western feminism are viewed by non-western women.
