In doing so, it develops a growing body of work concerned with the relationships women forge to feminism?s pasts, presents and futures, with a distinct focus on the stories feminist women tell about their lives. It will appeal to students and scholars of sociology, psychosocial studies, gender studies, women's studies and cultural studies. 410 0$aCitizenship, Gender and Diversity 606 $aSociology 606 $aFeminist theory 606 $aPersonality 606 $aSocial psychology 606 $aSocial groups 606 $aFamily 606 $aHistoriography 606 $aSelf 606 $aIdentity (Psychology) 606 $aGender Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X35000 606 $aFeminism$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E44030 606 $aPersonality and Social Psychology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20050 606 $aSociology of Family, Youth and Aging$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22080 606 $aHistoriography and Method$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/711000 606 $aSelf and Identity$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20150 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aFeminist theory. 615 0$aPersonality. 615 0$aSocial psychology. 615 0$aSocial groups. 615 0$aFamily. 615 0$aHistoriography. 615 0$aSelf. 615 0$aIdentity (Psychology). 615 14$aGender Studies. 615 24$aFeminism. 615 24$aPersonality and Social Psychology. 615 24$aSociology of Family, Youth and Aging. 615 24$aHistoriography and Method. 615 24$aSelf and Identity. 676 $a305.3 700 $aGuest$b Carly$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01061551 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253344303321 996 $aBecoming Feminist$92519190 997 $aUNINA
