| Summary: | Liisa Horelli describes the ‘politics of place’ conducted by the Nordic women's movement around the ‘new everyday life’ and its successor, the EuroFEM – gender and human settlement network. It also analyses through the conceptual framework developed by the project a case study on women's resource centres in the rural areas of Finnish North-Karelia. She suggests that the framework for a viable politics of place would, however, profit from the concepts of holistic economics and dynamic embedded power, which both need further elaboration and careful integration into the framework.
