Abstract

The academization/institutionalization of Women's Studies has emerged as a result of the need to legitimize, develop, and further promote the feminist movement. Western feminists have considered this phenomenon the culmination of their long struggle: as enabling a credible and legitimate voice to a large sector of society that has long been silenced. Bringing women's issues and concerns to the University has accorded feminist academics a platform to undertake research, publish studies, and develop different conceptual and methodological tools to deal with traditionally ignored social phenomena.
