Description - Antifeminism in the Academy by Veve Clark
Contending that the anti-feminist backlash in the academy is part of the broader "politically correct" rhetoric, the authors have gathered together a collection of writers, academics and activists to challenge the rising tide of insults, insinuation and spoken violence in academia. With the classroom's climate increasingly chilly for women, this study is a response to the assault on feminist thinkers, critics and academics. Offering a spirited response to the wave of tenure disputes, departmental fights and flights, the contributors examine the imaginary construction of feminist "threats" by those seeking to undermine and denigrate the role of women in the academy. The contributors explore possible responses, actions and remedies, as well as carefully exploring the roots of the backlash against women.
