The book represents an attempt to formulate the theoretical answer to,the question - is there a place for feminism in a contemporary world?,Is there any sense in talking about feminism today, when many,liberties are won, when we have reasons to state that certain kind of,equality between men and women does exist, when women appear regularly,and in manifold ways in different public spheres? Many young women who,enjoy acquired rights and liberties do not recognize the influence of,the work of the former generations on their lives, which oftentimes,,unfortunately, reveals the want of solidarity and understanding for,women who could not go beyond the "old-fashioned" social norms and,demands "all by themselves". The books aims at showing that this work,has not been finished yet, by means of demonstrating how lives of,women were led before the emergence of feminism, what changes occurred,and what is yet to be done. The structure of the book corresponds to,this idea: if one tried to decompose one's everyday life â€“ where,public and private mingle, where we work, vote, read, make love, do,our best to stay in touch with the world around us, speak, go to,exibitions, church and peace rallies â€“ one would find things which had,been unimaginable just hundreds years ago, but are part and parcel of,our world today. The book "Somebody Said Feminism? How Feminism,Affected Women in XXI Century" wants to show that feminism contributed,largely to this, although we are quite often unaware of it.,The books represents 26 young feminist authors from Serbia, some of,which are already known to the local audience and some of which,publish for the first time.
