Beschreibung

What does it mean to say that there is a feminist sociology? And how might we engage the full potential of a “feminist sociological imagination”?

These questions lie at the heart of Jo Reger’s slim guide to a powerful tool, which has a long history in US sociology and yet remains as urgently needed as ever. Grounded in a need to change both society and the discipline, feminist sociology challenges the foundations of traditional social science and articulates new ways of creating knowledge, doing research, and understanding the role of researchers and the people they study. Drawing on concepts such as positionality and reflexivity and emphasizing the importance of feminist ethics, emotions, activism, and transformation, this concise book traces out what it means to engage in feminist sociology and to claim the identity of a feminist sociologist.
