It focuses on a cluster of feminist publications--including\u003ci\u003e BUST\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBitch\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHUES\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eVenus Zine\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eRockrgrl\u003c\/i\u003e--that began as zines in the 1990s. By tracking their successes and failures, this book provides insight into the politics of feminism's recent past.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eMaking Feminist Media\u003c\/i\u003e brings together interviews with magazine editors, research from zine archives, and analysis of the advertising, articles, editorials, and letters to the editor found in third-wave feminist magazines. It situates these publications within the long history of feminist publishing in the United States and Canada and argues that third-wave feminist magazines share important continuities and breaks with their historical forerunners. These publishing lineages challenge the still-dominant--and hotly contested-- wave metaphor categorization of feminist culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The stories, struggles, and strategies of these magazines not only represent contemporary feminism, they create and shape feminist cultures. The publications provide a feminist counter-public sphere in which the competing interests of editors, writers, readers, and advertisers can interact. \u003ci\u003eMaking Feminist Media\u003c\/i\u003e argues that reading feminist magazines is far more than the consumption of information or entertainment: it is a profoundly intimate and political activity that shapes how readers understand themselves and each other as feminist thinkers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eGroeneveld, Elizabeth:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eElizabeth Groeneveld\u003c\/b\u003e is an assistant professor of Women's Studies at Old Dominion University, Norfolk, Virginia.","brand":"Wilfrid Laurier University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50362901463314,"sku":"9781771121200","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_3c313b7e-cb32-4caa-aded-c4f664e27ab2.jpg?v=1728398302","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/making-feminist-media-third-wave-magazines-on-the-cusp-of-the-digital-age-9781771121200","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
