Features: This volume of Chinese Feminism's "Feminism in Action" presents the actions and roles of Chinese feminism in various fields and scenarios. It continues the tone of the original Chinese Feminism series, upholding the purpose of promoting the flourishing development of Chinese feminism and gender equality and harmony. It records the emergence, development, and maturation of Western women's liberation movements, as well as Chinese feminism, which has evolved under the influence of Western feminist thought and China's unique national conditions, and explores its roles and impacts in different historical periods. It addresses women's issues, cares for the harmonious development of both genders, and ultimately focuses on the eternal question of "the human." As one of the key trends in the transformation of human gender culture, feminism has taken on diverse forms in countries worldwide, presenting an open and pluralistic theoretical construction based on its extensive social practice. Feminism seeks to achieve women's self-liberation and direct participation in the transformation of human culture through education, and to improve the human condition through thought and culture rather than war and violence. Therefore, feminism holds significant importance for building a harmonious society. The diversity of feminist thought not only provides us with broad perspectives and insights into the roots of women's oppression and how gender discrimination intersects with other forms of human prejudice but also offers rich reflections on the relationship between the self and the other in our multicultural era. Chinese feminism is sharp but not aggressive. It addresses women's issues, cares for the harmonious development of both genders, and ultimately focuses on the eternal question of "the human." This book, combining history with the present, translation with localization, and theory with action, is both scholarly and fashionable, showcasing a smiling Chinese feminism.
