'Feminisms'

• This chapter reviews a selection of books published in 2017 relevant to feminist critical and cultural theory. Although the studies reviewed are different in their focus, methods, and aims, they share a concern with the (feminist) ethics of the everyday. The chapter is divided into five sections: 1. Introduction; 2. Feminist Lives, which reviews Sara Ahmed’s Living a Feminist Life and bell hooks and Stuart Hall’s Uncut Funk: A Contemplative Dialogue; 3. Feminist Philosophy, which reviews Luce Irigaray’s To Be Born: Genesis of a New Human Being, Astrida Neimanis’s Bodies of Water: Posthuman Feminist Phenomenology, and Lori Jo Marso’s Politics with Beauvoir: Freedom in the Encounter; 4. Feminisms across the Globe, which reviews Decolonizing Feminism: Transnational Feminism and Globalization, edited by Margaret A. McLaren; 5. Conclusion.
