Chapter Six Beginning(s): Feminist Epistemological Science Fiction (original) (raw)

2016

Abstract

In this concluding chapter, Calvin addresses why FESF matters, and what it might offer for a larger feminist politics and practice. This conclusion argues that epistemic exclusion inflicts harm on the body politic, and that it excludes certain members of society from full participation in society. The questions that feminist philosophers have asked of epistemology and the questions that feminist science fiction writers ask point to a new form of identity politics no longer predicated on the individual Subject, but rather, on an epistemic community.
