Feminists speak about important political issues because the lives of women are complex. Recognising how power works and in whose favour underlies many of these discussions. In this compelling and clear account of political structures, Betty McLellan asks the important questions. What is truth and how do we understand it, especially when some say, “That’s not my truth.” Are there competing truths?Modern and postmodern approaches to democracy impinge on issues of power and truth, especially with increasingly individualistic as opposed to collective approaches to politics. Populism has been used by politicians to shore up votes and sway entire sections of the voting public while identity politics has fractured that same voting public.Is democracy dead or are there ways of fruitfully salvaging democracy. Could feminism be the answer?

Betty McLellan''s analysis and arguments are fundamentally about truth, its importance for a functioning democracy and radical feminists'' insistence on telling it.—Kara Dansky, US lawyer and author of The Reckoning: How Democrats and the Left Betrayed Woman and Girls.
