Betty Friedan: And the Making of the Feminine Mystique :The American Left, the Cold War, and Modern Feminism (Culture, Politics, and the Cold War): summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Betty Friedan: And the Making of the Feminine Mystique :The American Left, the Cold War, and Modern Feminism (Culture, Politics, and the Cold War)" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Drawing on an impressive body of new research - including Friedans own papers - Horowitz traces the development of Friedans feminist outlook from her childhood in Peoria, Illinois, through her wartime years at Smith College and Berkeley, to her decade-long career as a writer for two of the periods most radical labor journals, the Federated Press and the United Electrical Workers UE News. He further shows that even after she married and began to raise a family, Friedan continued during the 1950s to write and work on behalf of a wide range of progressive social causes. By resituating Friedan within a broader cultural context, and by offering a fresh reading of The Feminine Mystique against that background, Horowitz not only overturns conventional ideas about second-wave feminism but also reveals long submerged links to its past.
