With Tom Amarquewww.parallax-media.comThis talk is ostensibly about the culture war that is, to agreater or lesser extent, occupying all our minds right now. But I don’t wantto get lost in the political trenches. Instead, I’d like to shift thehorizontal axis to a vertical one and see what lies underneath.We can’t talk about the culture war without talking aboutfeminism, and we can’t talk about feminism without Carl Jung.
