Emma Goldman

Sexuality and the Impurity of the State


Bonnie Haaland


This book focuses on the ideas of Emma Goldman as they relate to the centrality of sexuality and reproduction, and as such, are relevant to the current feminist debates.

A model for "integrative feminism" that focuses on individuality rather than on rights.
Common Knowledge

In its focus on Goldman's ideas, Haaland's work stands out among other literature. What is most valuable about Goldman today, is not her ideas so much as what she did with her ideas.
