Inhalt:
Women are at the heart of civil society organisations (CSOs) that challenge oppressive practices at a local and global level and develop outstanding entrepreneurial activities. Yet CSO research tends to ignore considerations of gender, and the rich history of activist feminist organisations is rarely examined. This collection corrects that oversight, exploring the nexus between the emancipation of women and their roles in CSOs.
