Paperback. Zustand: Good. After years of teaching women's studies courses and seeing the frustration, paralysis and depression of young students who grapple with the hard realities of social activism, Leela Fernandes has written a social critique that examines contemporary feminism and social justice movements. She discusses straightforwardly the problems with social justice organizations, academia and identity politics. She also poses a solution: that individuals--feminists and other social justice activists--create their own non-institutional spiritual base, one that will sustain them through the hard ethical choices needed in contemporary social justice activism.  Speaking of political and spiritual transformation in the same breath, she presses for a sacred understanding of our selves both as individuals and as a part of a larger interconnected world.In offering a compelling alternative vision of feminist practice--demanding nothing less that a spiritual revolution--Fernandes has taken the next step. Transforming Feminist Practice is an indispensable book for activistas and thinkers. -- Gloria E. Anzaldúa  Leela Fernandes' refreshing new book--which argues that spiritual social activism offers a material way to create change--is required reading for all those concerned to create a more just world. In this courageous and timely volume, Fernandes demonstrates how to undermine the misguided dichotomy between the spiritual and the material, and thus provides possibilities for all of us who are politically engaged to imagine alternatives to the current political impasse in which we find ourselves. Brava! -- Kum-Kum Bhavnani, Professor of Sociology and Chair of the Women, Culture and Development Program, UCSB  Courageous.Provocative.Deeply inspiring. Leela Fernandes travels right to the heart of feminism's most cherished practices with a map of the transformative power of the spiritual at a time when our radical social projects most urgently need it. We cannot afford to ignore this invitational challenge. -- M. Jacqui Alexander.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Today, we live in a world where we are less exposed to violence than at any other time in history. However, we also know that violence can come knocking on our door at any moment. Preparing for this possibility means more than physical safety; it means being clear with ourselves about the ethics of violence. Can violence be justified? When should we fight? How should we fight? And in situations when things have gone badly, may we kill? These questions are not only for politicians, soldiers, and police officers, but are also important considerations for civilians whose lives do not normally intersect with violence. Whether advocating for government policies, marching in the streets, or defending ourselves and loved ones, a coherent moral framework is essential to good decision-making. May I Kill? examines the efficacy of different approaches to non-violence and Just War Theory. By scrutinizing these ethical theories, the reader is encouraged to critically examine occasions for the use of force from a moral perspective, whether nations at war or violent encounters in our own neighborhoods. We may then determine how best to develop ourselves--body, mind, and spirit--to respond effectively and make the world a safer place.…
