Abstract
Badaczki feministyczne z krajów rozwijających się przez długi czas pisały o napięciu między feminizmami Zachodnimi a feminizmami krajów rozwijających się. Zachodnie feministki często przedstawiają kobiety z krajów rozwijających jako poddaną opresji monolityczną grupę z „trzeciego świata”. W niniejszym artykule zakładam, że władza zakorzeniona w tego rodzaju przedstawieniach niejawnie kategoryzuje kobiety ze świata rozwijającego się jako „inne” i tym samym umożliwia zachodnim feminizmom określanie, czyja wiedza jest odpowiednia w kontekście rozwijania feministycznej epistemologii. Podkreślam również, że dla rozwoju nauki feministycznej konieczne jest uznanie, że feministki z każdego zakątka świata posiadają wiedzę i doświadczenie, które powinny być postrzegane jako wartościowy wkład w feminizm. W swoim artykule stawiam pytanie o to, czy może dojść do zmiany w sposobach wytwarzania wiedzy feministycznej, zmiany umożliwiającej przekroczenie obecnych ograniczeń i wprowadzenie solidarności w praktyki feministyczn.
