The league has been at the forefront of the nation's century-long transition from an authoritarian state to a democracy that espouses gender equality as a core constitutional value. It has, indeed, always regarded itself as the women's movement, frequently asserting its primacy as a vanguard organization and as \u003ci\u003ethe\u003c\/i\u003e only legitimate voice of the women of South Africa. But, as this deeply insightful book shows, the history of the league is a more complicated affair-it was neither the only women's organization in the political field nor an easy ally for South African feminism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Shireen Hassim\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0821421565\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780821421567\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ohio University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/12\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.00h x 4.37w x 0.34d","brand":"Shireen Hassim","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43947346231551,"sku":"9780821421567","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_e7dce1b6-4cbb-4404-b204-565c735a3399.jpg?v=1681518178","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-anc-womens-league-shireen-hassim-9780821421567","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
