Article Title: Like mother, like daughter: Exploring feminism's familial strife
Abstract: Reviews Not My Mother's Sister: Generational Conflict and Third-Wave Feminism by Astrid Henry (2004). In this book, Henry addresses what she observes as the ubiquitous tendency within feminism to use the mother-daughter relationship as the defining metaphor for relations between second- and third-wave feminists. Henry offers a compelling argument for how and why this metaphor is so consistently employed and examines its implications for contemporary feminism.
