This book marks a pivotal moment in the intensifying dialogue
between the philosophical approach of critical realism and the
fields of feminist theory and gender research. During the last
three decades, these fields have been decisively influenced by
poststructuralist perspectives. As such perspectives are
increasingly being challenged, this book argues that critical
realism is able to serve as a fruitful resource for carving out new
paths for feminist theorizing and research. At the same time, it
argues that feminist insights on gender and knowledge production
have the potential to significantly enrich the field of critical
realist philosophy as well. Hence, this book serves as a forum for
a number of interventions that, in different ways, explore
synergetic potentials as well as tensions between critical realist
and various feminist perspectives. It engages in debates over the
conditions of knowledge production and the relationship of
knowledge to the world, offers new ways of understanding sex,
gender and power, as well as the intersectional interplay of
diverse power relations, and explores how critical realism relates
to new materialist and postpositivist realist approaches. This book
was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of
Critical Realism.
