In assessing the current state of feminism and gender studies,
whether on a theoretical or a practical level, it has become
increasingly challenging to avoid the conclusion that these fields
are in a state of disarray. Indeed, feminist and gender studies
discussions are beset with persistent splits and disagreements.
This reader suggests that returning to, and placing centre-stage,
the role of philosophy, especially critical realist philosophy of
science, is invaluable for efforts that seek to overcome or
mitigate the uncertainty and acrimony that have resulted from this
situation. In particular, it claims that the dialectical logic that
runs through critical realist philosophy is ideally suited to
advancing feminist and gender studies discussions about broad
ontological and epistemological questions and considerations,
intersectionality, and methodology, methods, and empirical
research. By bringing together four new and eight existing writings
this reader provides both a focal point for renewed discussions
about the potential and actual contributions of critical realist
philosophy to feminism and gender studies and a timely contribution
to these discussions.
