Feminist Anthropology and Postmodern Criticism
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page discussion of feminist anthropology, the approach to anthropology which entails an intent to overcome the traditional male-dominate biases which have previously existed in the field. Presents the work of Sherry B. Ortner as well as numerous other authors to illustrate the premises of feminist anthropology. Points out that even this approach is not without its critics. Cautions that while some in anthropology today seek to take the discipline one more step, to use it as a tool for exposing the factors which result in the world's inequalities, particularly the inequalities between men and women and overcoming those factors, that approach is a distraction and indeed a threat to the traditional intent of the discipline. Concludes that the anthropologist is to observe and record, not to interfere in matters which were in existence long prior to our arrival on the scene. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Feminist Science Fiction: A Stereotypical Literary Genre in Itself?
[ send me this paper ]
An 11 page discussion of feminist preferences and content in science fiction. Contends that the creation of the literary genre of “feminist science fiction” is in reality an injustice to feminist as that genre makes the assumption that writing content and preference is determined by gender. This genre requires a literary work to feature women rather than men. This paper points out that the author’s likes and dislikes in science fiction have little to do with the gender of the author or whether the primary plot features a woman or a man. The author contends that such a categorization severely limits the type of work which is acceptable under this proposed genre. We must ask ourselves, is it any more fair to limit a feminist’s creative output than it is to limit her occupation or perceived societal role? Is the feminist who chooses to write science fiction which features interaction of men and women as equals no longer a feminist? Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Anticipated yet realistic at the same time, both Adrienne and Camille thought they understood the cultural, political and social intensity inherent to South Africa; only after they experienced its profundity firsthand did they actually realize the overwhelming sense of authoritarianism and gender discord.
