Abstract

Erna Appelt, Brigitte Aulenbacher, and Angelika Wetterer’s anthology aims at a feminist analysis and criticism of the current development of society, which is often described as critical in contemporary diagnoses of the time. The twelve articles by authors from the fields of social science, political science, and gender studies deal with crises regarding the social relations to nature, life care and economy, publicity and privacy, as well as standardization and ideologies and the editors’ introduction relates the articles to each other. Without exception, the articles are inspiring and enriching for the current time diagnostic discussions; however, they could in parts be more precise regarding terminology and empiricism as well as slightly more thorough regarding the argumentation.
