Feminisms and critical rural development, 2003
Abstract
In the 21st century, the global academic community suffers
from excessive domination by english-speaking academics
with excellent access to the mass of writing in english.
Theory is crucial to us all, but in social science, writings in
english privileges theory too much over grounded research.
This is found not only in rural development, and in the
author’s own subject of geography, but in feminism, for all
its claims to be open and inclusive. Critical rural
development, which is critical of contemporary economic
and political relations, can learn from the experiences of
geography and feminism of the urgent need to engage in a
new sustained collective endeavour involving many people
working from a variety of viewpoints in different parts of
the world (Stanley and Wise 2000) in confronting the
world’s real problems and, as a necessary part of the
process, in overcoming this domination.
