Abstract [en]

Next, Feraro discusses, on the one hand, the women's movement in the United States and Britain in the early 1970s and into the 1980s, and, on the other hand, the emergence of so-called matriarchy study groups in Britain. By use of a gender perspective, here meaning that Feraro analyses what view of gender is constructed, he shows that in the 1950s men in Wicca held the power and that the rituals where based on the merging of a dichotomous male and a female energy. In the final chapter, Feraro moreover presents an analysis of small magazines, which were produced on a non-profit basis by people in various Wiccan and Wicca-derived groups during the 1970s and 1980s.
