Key Concepts in Feminist Theory and Research

This original and engaging text explores the core concepts in feminist theory. It identifies the challenges of this through the development of ‘conceptual literacy’. The text explores these issues through six key concepts in feminist theorizing: equality; difference; choice; care; time; and experience. Each chapter considers the varied ways in which these terms have been conceptualised and the feminist debates about these concepts. This text will be an invaluable tool for students taking courses in feminist theory and research methods, and students across the social sciences who are taking courses concerned with issues of gender.
