Who wins, who loses, and why? In \u003cem\u003eFrenemies\u003c\/em\u003e, Nancy Whittier addresses this question through a study of feminist and conservative opposition to pornography, campaigns against child sexual abuse, and engagement on the Violence Against Women Act. Drawing on extensive research, Whittier shows how feminist and conservative activists interacted with each other and with the federal government, how their interaction affected them, and what each side achieved. Whittier re-conceptualizes relationships between social movements, presenting a model of how \"frenemies\"--groups that are neither allies nor opponents--work toward related goals. She outlines the dynamics and paths of frenemy relationships, describing the unintended consequences for the groups involved and for their respective movements at large. With high levels of political polarization across the U.S., \u003cem\u003eFrenemies\u003c\/em\u003e provides a crucial look at both the promise and the risk of cooperation across political differences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNancy Whittier\u003c\/strong\u003e is Sophia Smith Professor of Sociology at Smith College and the author of \u003cem\u003eThe Politics of Child Sexual Abuse\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eFeminist Generations: The Persistence of the Radical Women's Movement \u003c\/em\u003eand co-editor of both \u003cem\u003eSocial Movements: Identity, Culture, and the State\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eFeminist Frontiers\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 9.1 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 06, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46256327852167,"sku":"9780190236007","price":49.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/fK92Me7gVW9780190236007.webp?v=1792511486","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/frenemies-feminists-conservatives-and-sexual-violence-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
