When the Twin Towers in New York, and the Pentagon in Washington were hit by aeroplanes, the western world stood in shocked silence. Then came the commentators, the endless news reports, and the constant replaying of television footage. Amidst the countless responses were the voices of women: writing for newspapers, some writing on-line, using e-mail lists and chat rooms. And in the sea of responses were those offering a uniquely feminist perspective. This collection of writings on the September 11 terrorist attacks on New York and Washington DC brings together the voices of women around the world as they discuss the connections between war, terrorism, fundamentalism, racism, global capitalism and male violence.
