Feminist writers and scholars consider whether technology has made good on its promise to liberate women—sexually, biologically, economically, and politically.
From the breast pump to egg freezing, new technologies have long promised to “liberate” mothers, but the results are often uneven, freeing some
women while worsening the oppression of others.
Once and Future Feminist considers how technology offers women both advances and setbacks in the realms of sex, career, and politics. In the age of Silicon Valley, these issues are more pressing than ever, and this collection pushes readers to consider not only whether emancipatory feminism
is possible today, but what it might look like.
