This collection examines how political solidarities are being understood and constructed in cross-border struggles under twenty-first century conditions. It explores how the Cold War divide and its aftermath have structured contemporary asymmetries in European LGBT movements and 'global feminisms', how colonial difference in Latin America confronts feminist and social justice movements with problems of translation across worlds, how travelling concepts essential to constructing solidarities across distance and difference traverse linguistic divides and attendant power imbalances in world cities and transnational networks, and how rurality as a form of colonial difference challenges established categories of intersectional feminism. Feminist politics of power and difference and attention to gendered agency are at the centre of this inquiry into the possibility of twenty-first century solidarities across borders. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 240 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23 September 2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSince the peak of global solidarities and social movements in the 1990s United Nations conferences, the conditions for these movements have undergone a significant transformation. This collection explores the evolving understanding and construction of political solidarities in various cross-border struggles under the twenty-first century conditions. Researchers from diverse world regions, employing diverse scales, examine how the legacy of the Cold War divide and its aftermath has shaped contemporary asymmetries in European LGBT movements and global feminisms. They also investigate how the concept of \"colonial difference\" in Latin America confronts feminist and social justice movements with challenges of translation across worlds. Furthermore, they explore how traveling concepts essential to constructing solidarities across distance and difference navigate linguistic divides and attendant power imbalances in world cities and transnational networks. Additionally, they examine how rurality, as a form of colonial difference, challenges established categories of intersectional feminism. At the heart of this inquiry lies feminist politics of power and difference, as well as an emphasis on gendered agency, in exploring the potential for twenty-first century solidarities across borders.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince the peak of global solidarities and social movements in the 1990s United Nations conferences, the conditions for these movements have undergone a significant transformation.
