A  couple  of  times  a  year  (usually  around  International  Women’s  Day  or  the latest  gender  controversy)  there’ll  be  a  journalist  on  the  phone,  asking  me,  ‘where  is  feminism  now?’  Angela  McRobbie’s   The  Aftermath  of  Feminism: Gender,  Culture  and  Social  Change  provides  the  perfect  answer,  though  one  that  probably  won’t  be  dutifully  reported  in  the  pages  of  the   Courier­ Mail .  McRobbie  has  always  been  a  preeminent  figure  in  feminist  cultural  studies,  and  this  work  highlights  her  continuing  importance. Indeed,  The  Aftermath  of  Feminism   reminds  us  of  the  power  of  feminist  cultural  studies  to  explain  what’s  going  on, whether  this  is  in  the media,  popular  culture,  everyday  life,  governmentality,  the  corporate  world,  or  their  interrelationships.  And  McRobbie’s  diagnosis  of  ‘a  social  and  cultural  landscape  which  could  be  called  post‐feminist’   is  uncompromising,  far‐reaching  in  scope,  and  deeply  disturbing.
