Abstract

This interview may allow a better approach to the Japanese feminist researcher Chizuko Ueno: first in her analysis of the place of women in a society mainly ruled by men and also in her idea of the way to account for historical issues without ignoring any longer the many-sided possible approaches. Gender segregation being deeply rooted into the Japanese society, gender studies could be inserted but slowly into universities. Nevertheless there were some successful achievements. Not only did gender studies receive academic status but above all the feminist activism of the Japanese researchers brought into the bright daylight the historical facts that the men had prudishly concealed from the public.
