What Do Women Want? Woman-Centred Values and the World As It Is
Sheila Rowbotham has been involved in the women's movement since it began. She has written extensively on feminist and socialist politics and history. Her latest work is a collection of essays and poems Dreams and Dilemmas (Virago, 1984). At present she is working in the GLC's Industry and Employment branch where she helps to edit a newspaper Jobs for a Change.
'What do Women Want?' is the amended text of the Killam Memorial Lecture given by Sheila Rowbotham as part of a series on 'Feminist Visions', which also included Marge Piercy and Mary Daly, at Dalhousie University, Halifax, Canada in Autumn 1984. A slightly shorter version is appearing in the Dalhousie Review.
