Introduction to Focus Section: Feminist Research and Knowledge Production in Geography
Authors:Nancy Hiemstra  Emily Billo
Institution:1. Stony Brook University;2. Goucher College
Abstract:Over the past two decades, feminist geographers have contributed in critical ways to thinking on the conduct, complications, and consequences of feminist research. The robust existing body of work is testament to the foundational import of these contributions, but the articles in this Focus Section suggest that there are still important things to argue, talk about, and reflect on with regard to the epistemological aspects of doing feminist geography. These six articles bring together real-life examples of complex issues that feminist researchers in geography face today, with the overarching aim of sparking discussions about the relationship between feminist research and knowledge production. Specifically, the articles expand key concepts facilitating reflexive processes and offer new tools for feminist researchers. This Introduction reviews the existing literature pertaining to both of these goals, and summarizes and situates the articles that follow.
Keywords:feminist methods  knowledge production  methodological tools  reflexivity  research methodology
