| Through theoretical discussions and empirical examples, Solidarities beyond Borders demonstrates the creativity and dynamism of transnational women’s movements around the world. These timely case studies from North America, Latin America, and Southeast Asia introduce feminists, activists, and scholars to the benefits and challenges of building relationships, dialogues, and perspectives that extend beyond the boundaries of nation-states and disciplines. Part 1 opens a dialogue between feminist theorists and scholars of social movements in other disciplines - geographers, anthropologists, sociologists, and political scientists. Part 2 explores how the mutual recognition of interests and identities among feminist activists and women’s organizations can deepen solidarities. Part 3 focuses on the challenges that feminists and women’s groups will face as they build solidarities beyond borders but argues that these links can be extended to embrace other progressive movements and their goals. Solidarities beyond Borders not only brings to light the opportunities and challenges that globalization poses for transnationalizing women’s movements, it also offers important strategic, conceptual, and methodological lessons for all social movements.
