Feminist Praxis Summary

Feminist Praxis: Research, Theory and Epistemology in Feminist Sociology by Liz Stanley

Feminist Praxis combines theoretical discussion of feminist methodology with detailed accounts of practical research processes. This blend of the practical and the theoretical will make it an invaluable text for feminists carrying out research at all levels, and it will also appeal to those interested in the relationship between theory, method, and feminist epistemology. The problem of doing feminist research is central to building a feminist social science, yet this problem has not been addressed thoroughly in feminist literature. The text offers a practical guide to carrying out feminist social research. The contributors' analysis of feminist research projects illuminates the research process. Topics covered range from child-minding to colonialism through to statistics. These discussions are placed within the controversy about feminist methodology and the debates about the position of women within the academic mode of production.
