Making the Case: Feminist and Critical Race Philosophers Engage Case Studies
Feminist Epistemology
This chapter offers an account of the central issues of feminist epistemology, its historical trajectory, its recent trends, and its relationship to mainstream and social epistemology.

However, I argue that Nelson's view is problematic for feminists, and I offer instead a conception of knowers as "individuals-in-communities." This conception is preferable, given the premises and goals of feminist epis…
