The context and contours of identity formations confronting and constituting women's lives form the concerns of many of the articles in this issue of "Feminist Review. The spaces available for women to resist, inflect, and in some cases sabotage subjections, are the focus of many of the explorations in the issue. The contexts considered range from the moral sexual codes of Pakistan, the old patriarchal order of colonial Rhodesia, the mental health industry in the UK, and the imagined global community of "Grrl Zines magazines and websites. Economic relations in Europe are addressed by contributors as another defining contextualization of women's lives.
