Comparing different generations of feminists: precariousness versus corporations? - Paola di Cori

This article focuses on the gap and conflicts in Italy between the so-called 'historical feminists' of the 1960s and 1970s, and the generation of young women who entered the public and political arena from 1990 onwards. It discusses the absence of a critical and self-critical perspective within the Italian historical feminist tradition, the various political conflicts that emerged before and during the Berlusconi right-wing government at the beginning of 2000 and the absence of an active visible presence of young women in the media and in politics.
