In this landmark work, four of the world's leading scholar-activists present a vital, urgent manifesto for a truly intersectional, internationalist, abolitionist feminism.

As a politics and as a practice, abolitionism has increasingly shaped our political moment, amplified through the worldwide protests following the murder of George Floyd by a uniformed police officer in 2020. It is at the heart of the Black Lives Matter movement, with its demands for police defunding and demilitarization, and a halt to prison construction. It is also evident in the outrage that greeted the brutal treatment of women by police at the vigil for Sarah Everard in 2021.

As this book shows, abolitionism and feminism stand shoulder-to-shoulder in fighting a common cause: the end of the carceral state, which plays a key role in perpetuating violence, both public and private, in prisons, police forces, and people's homes. Abolitionist theories and practices are most compelling when they are feminist, and a feminism that is also abolitionist is the most inclusive and persuasive version of feminism for these times.
