Abstract

Abstract This chapter offers an account of central issues in feminist social and political philosophy, examples of important contributions and disagreements within the field, and suggestions regarding future directions in feminist social and political philosophy. The chapter reviews the relationship between feminist social and political philosophy and nonfeminist social and political philosophy and proposes a thematic taxonomy for the field that demarcate four subareas within it: (i) social ontology, (ii) norms, structures and power, (iii) social justice, (iv) politics. While necessarily crisscrossing each other, every one of the subareas is organized around different enough questions and therefore shifts the theoretical perspectives that are developed through their discussion.
