Despite a considerable array of challenges to their participation in the public and political spheres, the movement is especially vibrant. Presenting insights from feminist activists in Malaysia, the book explores the Women's Candidacy Initiative's efforts to promote independent women in Parliament; the work of women's coalition the Joint Action Group for Gender Equality; how activists understand and experience the concept of feminism; and finally the place of men in feminism. Women's Activism in Malaysia will be of interest to students and scholars across a range of disciplines including gender studies, politics and sociology. 001378215 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed April 30, 2018). 001378215 650_0 $$aWomen's rights$$zMalaysia. 001378215 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001378215 830_0 $$aPalgrave pivot. 001378215 852__ $$bebk 001378215 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-78969-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001378215 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1378215$$pGLOBAL_SET 001378215 980__ $$aBIB 001378215 980__ $$aEBOOK 001378215 982__ $$aEbook 001378215 983__ $$aOnline 001378215 994__ $$a92$$bISE
