About the Book

This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY NC ND 4.0 International license. It is free to read at Oxford Scholarship Online and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations.Feminism is in trouble. For more than two decades, Islamic veils, niqabs, and burkinis, forced and arranged marriages, polygamy and Sharia rules concerning women have been the object of intense public scrutiny and legal regulations in many Western countries, especially in Europe, and feminists have been actively engaged on both sides of the debates. In Feminist Trouble, Éléonore Lépinard draws on extended fieldwork with numerous women's organizations in France and Quebec. Giving voice to women of color and white women, Lépinard dissects hierarchies of privilege, in particular whiteness, in feminist politics, grappling with Islam and Islamic veiling debates to understand how these changes have transformed contemporary feminist movements, intersectional politics, and the feminist collective subject. A critical look at feminism, its divisions, and its future, Feminist Trouble argues that feminism should not be centered around an identity-women-but should instead focus on a feminist ethic of responsibility which reckons with power asymmetries and requires women to prioritize their ethical responsibility to the feminist project.

About the Author :
Éléonore Lépinard, Associate Professor in gender studies, the Institute of Social Sciences of the Université de Lausanne Éléonore Lépinard is Associate Professor in gender studies at the Institute of Social Sciences of the Université de Lausanne. She is the author of a book on the French parity reform (L'égalité Introuvable: Les Féministes, La Parité et la République), the co-editor of a book on intersectionality theory and practice (L'intersectionalité: Enjeux Théoriques et Pratiques), as well as the co-editor of a comparative volume on gender quotas in Europe (Transforming Gender Citizenship: The irresistible rise of gender quotas in Europe, with Ruth Rubio-Marin).

Review :
"She presents a powerful theoretical lens...that demonstrates how feminist discourses produce and politicize feminist identities that lead to inclusionary and exclusionary practices. This is a must-have text for graduate and advanced undergraduate students majoring in women, gender, and sexuality studies. Highly recommended. Advanced undergraduates through faculty." -- S. Lawson-Clark, CHOICE "A must-read. Feminist Trouble not only offers new insight on feminist discourses and experiences vis-à-vis race, religion, and migration in Quebec and France, but it also marks a turning-point in feminist theory. The book steps aside questions of subjectivation and agency to locate empowerment in an ethical drive for responsibility. A bold and timely move in a context of cultural war." -Bruno Perreau, Cynthia L. Reed Professor of French Studies, MIT "Feminist Trouble is a tour-de-force of intersectional feminist analysis, helping us to navigate and think about feminism in post-secular times. Reading it illuminates much about the complexity of emancipatory movements and what they need--maybe more now than ever before-to find the way forward." -Phillip M. Ayoub, Associate Professor of Diplomacy and World Affairs, Occidental College
