The Village and the World: My Life, Our Times (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781876756826)

A stirring and inspiring narrative, this memoir combines the author's fascinating personal life story with her accounts of shifts in social and political outlooks during the 20th century. With stories of success and struggle against violence, oppression, and exploitation, this record discusses various themes, including the devastation and reconstruction triggered by World War II, the frustrations of the old power systems' barriers, and the author's experiences working and traveling in and against the globalized world. Both personal and political, this record will appeal to those interested in politics, sociology, and women's studies.
