Women in Algeria face 2 struggles in feminism - local patriarchy, feminist paradigm from global North #lseconnell
#LSEConnell absolutely agree with the struggle against the Northern paradigm of feminism. Women in some parts of the world think otherwise.
Place, belonging and distance start off the #lseconnell @LSEGenderTweet @FeministTheory lecture, amongst other struggles...
As feminist thought has moved into the academy, it enters a global economy of knowledge which is structured in particular ways #LSEConnell- This economy of knowledge has a similar structure to the global economy of materials, rooted in colonialism #LSEConnell
Prof Connell criticises the dominance of global North on the knowledge production of gender #LSEConnell
production of knowledge corresponds to global division of labour w data sourced from periphery and authorised in the metropole #LSEConnell- The global economy of #knowledge rooted in #colonialism excludes and discredits Other forms of knowledge in the Global South #LSEConnell
Western economy of knowledge set up to exclude other knowledges from other locations #LSEConnell @raewynconnell- characteristic of knowledge produced by those in the global North is one of self-satisfaction #LSEConnell
- Intellectuals in the global North have marginal awareness of the wealth of intellectual production in the global South #LSEConnell
- intellectual impoverishment / lack of awareness about wealth of knowledge available in global south #LSEConnell
- Intellectuals in global north unaware of knowledge and work of feminists in global south #LSEConnell
Aboriginal art from Australia contains embedded knowledge about gender issues #LSEConnell pic.twitter.com/A5FY9Wgcbi- indigenous knowledge may be sourced from alternative universalisms extricated from western epistemology eg islamic feminism #LSEConnell
Some of the best work on masculinity comes from the colonised world #lseconnell
