摘要:Joan Kennedy Taylor and her sponsors, The Cato Institute, should be commended for broaching the subject of feminism from a libertarian or classical liberal perspective. For those who have little knowledge about the subject and want a practical, issue-based account of the movement, this book may be useful as a preliminary survey of parts of the literature and the major policy issues. However, for those who prefer a more principled approach which focuses less on issues and more on conceptual analysis--specifically a contemporary account which explains how libertarianism applies to women--readers will have to wait since (to my knowledge) that book has yet to be written. Such readers would probably be better served looking at Wendy McElroy7s anthology Freedom, Feminism and the State. Nevertheless, Reclaiming the Mainstream is not without its virtues.
