European Women's Movements and Body Politics, 2015 The Struggle for Autonomy Citizenship, Gender and Diversity Series

This book examines how feminist movements have contested the dominant discourses and state politics that have impeded women's autonomy over their bodies since the late 1960s. It deals with two important facets of this struggle, prostitution and the right to abortion, as they relate to the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Portugal and Sweden.
