This comprehensive study delves into the intricate relationship between neoliberalism and the women's movement in Aotearoa/New Zealand, spanning from the mid-1980s to the late 2010s. Through an empirical analysis encompassing the three distinct levels of the movement—individualized feminism, the work of women's organizations, and state feminism—it explores the profound impact of neoliberal rationality, propagated by governments over three decades, on feminist identification, activism, and political opportunities for organizations and institutions within the movement.
The author examines the diverse range of feminist voices within the movement, analyzing intersectional, (post)colonial, and intergenerational debates in the context of neoliberalism's influence on feminist values and strategies. Furthermore, the book assesses whether neoliberal rationality has successfully depoliticized, individualized, and fragmented the women's movement.
In conclusion, this book offers valuable insights into the complex dynamics between neoliberalism and the women's movement in Aotearoa/New Zealand. Despite facing significant challenges, internal conflicts, and strategic shifts, the movement has demonstrated remarkable resilience and adaptability, proving its ability to survive the impact of neoliberalism. It serves as a valuable resource for scholars, activists, and anyone interested in understanding the evolving landscape of feminist activism and advocacy in the region.
