Situated knowledge and the interplay of value judgments and evidence in scientific inquiry
pp. 497-517
Abstract
Feminist philosophy of science is committed to the view that science neither is, nor ought to be, neutral among social and political values. Scientific theories, recognized as legitimate contributions by the scientific community, often embody androcentric or sexist values, and hence are subject to criticism by feminists. Feminists also seek to advance feminist scientific research programs that are explicitly informed by feminist values.
