Setsu Shigematsu’s book is the first to present a sustained history of the formation of ūman ribu—a women’s liberation movement in Japan—its political philosophy, and its contributions to feminist politics. Through an in-depth analysis of ūman ribu, Shigematsu furthers our understanding of Japan’s gender-based modernity and imperialism and expands our perspective on transnational liberation and feminist movements worldwide.
