Feminism from scratch

Mr. Ueno, えてください!

◎ Chizuko Ueno, the foremost Japanese feminist theorist and author of "Hatred of Women," presents a popular feminism course for general readers. ◎ Why is it so difficult for women? How have women fought until now? And how should they continue to fight? ◎ How should work, marriage, parenting, and other issues be viewed from a feminist perspective? —————— 【Editor's Recommendation】 ※ Ueno Chizuko became a celebrity scholar and writer after her 2019 University of Tokyo entrance ceremony speech, "The Society Awaiting You Is One Where Effort Does Not Guarantee Reward," sparked widespread discussion. This book is her highly anticipated new work, following the publication of "Hatred of Women" and "Patriarchy and Capitalism" in China. ※ This book is also Ueno Chizuko's first popular feminism book aimed at general readers. Unlike her more abstruse academic works, this book uses humorous, straightforward, and easy-to-understand language. Through a relaxed dialogue format, it popularizes the meaning and history of feminism, as well as how to approach daily issues like work, marriage, and childcare from a feminist perspective. ※ The content of this book touches upon core issues that concern modern women, revealing the many injustices and dilemmas women still face in today's society. Drawing from her own experiences, Ueno Chizuko places feminism within the context of personal life, telling us that feminism is not just about women, but about everyone's daily life. ※ This book is accompanied by comics by popular Japanese cartoonist Eiko Tabusa, allowing readers to experience a baptism of feminism in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. —————— 【Content Introduction】 What is feminism? Why do we need feminism? How do we think with feminism? Around these various questions, renowned Japanese scholar Chizuko Ueno and well-known cartoonist Eiko Tabusa embark on a feminism class from scratch. They use humorous language and vivid comics to trace the development of feminism, discuss everyday issues such as mother-daughter relationships, sex, work, marriage, and parenting, and refute stereotypical prejudices about women. This class not only opens a new journey but also tells us: feminism is not just about women, but about everyone's daily life.
