This was one of the most pioneering works in the field of gender
and social sciences in the African context, and remains an
authoritative text. It is an extensively researched and forcefully
argued study offering a critique and directions for gendering the
social sciences in Africa. The sixteen chapters cover
methodological and epistemological questions and substantive issues
in the various social science disciplines, ranging from economics,
politics, and history, to sociology and anthropology. Thirteen
scholars contribute, including the three distinguished women
editors. The translation, which is edited from the English and
newly introduced by the renowned feminist scholar Fatou Sow, is an
achievement itself, an incursion into the notorious difficulties of
translating what are notably Anglo-Saxon concepts of sex and gender
into the French language and distinctive academic environment; of
interpreting western concepts of feminism within the African
environment; as well as being an opportunity to revisit what
deserves to become a classic text and reach a wider audience.
