The notion of "feminist pragmatism" or "pragmatist feminism" has
been around since Charlene Haddock Seigfried introduced it two
decades ago. However, the bulk of the work in this field has been
directed toward recovering the feminist strain of classical
American philosophy, largely through renewed interest in the work
of Jane Addams. This exploration of the origins of feminism and
pragmatism has been fruitful in building a foundation for
theoretical considerations. The editors of this volume believe the
next logical step is the contemporary application to both theory
and experience. Contemporary Feminist Pragmatism is the first book
to address the modern significance of the nexus of feminism and
pragmatism. The issues explored here include the relationship
between community and identity, particularly around the impact of
gender and race; reframing political practice regarding feminist
pragmatist commitments including education, sustainability
movements, and local efforts like community gardens; and the
association between ethics and inquiry including explorations of
Buddhism, hospitality, and animal-human relationships.
