Transforming Feminist Practice: Non-violence, Social Justice and the Possibilities of a Spiritualized Feminism

Leela Fernandes has written a social critique that examines contemporary feminism and social justice movements. In Transforming Feminist Practice, Fernandes discusses the problems with social justice organisations, academia and identity politics. She also poses a solution: that individuals-feminists and other social justice activists-create their own non-institutional spiritual base, one that will sustain them through the hard ethical choices needed in contemporary social justice activism.
