Dear list-sisters of the AWSS and NEWW,

I've just been redesigning and expanding
the Russian Feminism Resources website at

        http://www.geocities.com/Athens/2533/russfem.html

You are warmly welcome to drop by, check out the 1998 look, and leave your
impressions in the new guestbook.

There's still more relevant stuff on the Internet in English than in
Russian, so links to English-language resources are more numerous. I've
split them into the following categories: Arts, Life/Work, Health,
Politics, Activism, Lesbian, Academic and Miscellaneous.

The pages of links to Russian-language resources are now mostly presented
in cyrillic text (KOI-8 encoding). At present, there are 4 Russian
categories: Kul'tura, Zhenskoe Dvizhenie, Nauka, Zhizn'. More categories
will be added as I collect more Russian links.

There is a bilingual page of links to Russian women's personal home pages,
a page of links to relevant organizations, and a page listing forthcoming
conferences.

Finally, there is a "Women in Other Post-Communist States" page, where I'm
trying to collect at least a couple of worthwhile links for each country,
without duplicating the extensive lists of contacts available at the NEWW
and Center for Civil Society International websites.

Here's a few diverse Russian addresses for your browsing pleasure:
