Description

Book Synopsis
Offers a look at the tensions, contradictions, and positive moments apparent in one Women's Culture Center in Madellin, Columbia. This book depicts the frailty and complexity of cross-class organizing, and the ways this process may be threatened by professionalized NGO styles.

Trade Review
By offering a fine-grained, engaging and provocative account of the workings of feminist Non-Governmental Organizations and their working-class women constituencies, When Women Have Wings fills a gaping lacuna in the now expansive literature on women's movements in the Global South. - Sonia E. Alverez, University of Massachusetts Amherst
