Więcej o książce
The book critiques the societal pressure on women to embody confidence, suggesting that such messaging shifts focus from systemic oppression to individual psychological issues. By analyzing the pervasive nature of confidence discourse in areas like body image and workplace dynamics, the authors utilize Foucault's concepts to reveal how this "confidence culture" fosters self-surveillance among women. They argue that this narrative not only overlooks structural injustices but also redefines feminism in a way that emphasizes individual responsibility, advocating for a more collective and systemic approach to feminist thought.
