Abstract

An essay is presented on the concept of Eurasia as related to transnational feminism. According to the author, women from this postsocialist, so-called second world region have been ignored or misunderstood by transnational feminism. It is suggested that the countries which experienced state socialism should be seen as a unique group which is not simply the product of democratization or Europeanization. Topics discussed include postcolonial studies, the Cold War, and hybridity.
