by Andrea Dworkin

Description
Why do women continue to value their own lives less than those of the men they love? Where is the line between justifiable self-defence and violence? In this work, Andrea Dworkin explores the subject of scapegoating, illustrating how and why women and Jews have been stigmatized throughout history, and comparing the civil inequality, the prejudices and stereotypes that have framed identity for both groups.Tags
