Sara Ahmed suggests that postmodernism has been allowed to dictate feminist debates and calls instead for feminist theorists to speak (back) to postmodernism, rather than simply speak on (their relationship to) it. Such a 'speaking back' involves a refusal to position postmodernism as a generalisable condition of the world and requires closer readings of what postmodernism is actually 'doing' in a variety of disciplinary contexts. Sara Ahmed hence examines constructions of postmodernism in relation to rights, ethics, subjectivity, authorship, meta-fiction and film. 606 $aFeminist theory 606 $aPostmodernism 615 0$aFeminist theory. 615 0$aPostmodernism. 676 $a305.42/01 700 $aAhmed$b Sara$f1969-$0711981 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778873503321 996 $aDifferences that matter$93854596 997 $aUNINA
