Course Content
This course aims to review and re-evaluate the feminist methodological literature and the basic themes in feminist research methods with a critical perspective. This involves the historical and current discussions in women´s studies on the relations between science and philosophy; theory and methodology; research and epistemology; and objectivity and subjectivity. The course questions the purpose and sources of knowledge and the legitimized ´knower´.
