Entitled English Prisons To-day, it provided a powerful indictment of the state of the country’s penal system, and as John Moore writes, it remains as relevant today as when it was written.

    How can feminists in the U.S. learn from the succesful feminist struggles of Latin America? Susana Draper and Verónica Gago argue that, in light of the US Supreme Court's overturning of Roe vs. Wade, what is needed is a new cross-border dialogue between feminist movements in the north and south of the American continent.
