Dutch feminist epistemologist Iris van der Tuin’s latest book Generational feminism: New materialist introduction to a generative approach (2015) is a captivating philosophical work that offers its readers a much-needed and innovative epistemological breakdown of the longstanding and over-accentuated Oedipalised generational conflicts within (and between) the traditions of academic and activist feminism.

Generational Feminism is a highly original, creative and theoretically-informed contribution to a persistent and important topic within feminism: the ways in which contemporary feminists relate to our foremothers as well as others yet to come. Opening up the term “generations” to embrace both of its meanings- “generational cohorts” and “generating” - and developing a new figuration of “jumping generations,” van der Tuin pushes the discussion provocatively in new directions. Crossing deliberately between epistemological and ontological registers, this book brings insights of neo-materialism to bear on questions of generational classifications, illuminating new paths for thinking about affirmative ways of relating to one another.

Generational Feminism challenges us to reconsider what we thought we knew about Twentieth-Century feminist work and the future of feminism. Iris van der Tuin provides the first map and theory of generational interactive theoretical feminist work. Driven by her innovative and original expression concerning the new materialist lens of reimagining the feminist project, van der Tuin expertly guides her reader through the technicalities of theory, enabling us to rethink and to reimagine ways to conceive of the generative movement of feminisms.
