John Dewey’s record as a feminist and an advocate of women is mixed. He valued women intellectual associates whose influences he acknowledged, but did not develop theoretical articulations of the reasons for women’s subordination and marginalization. Given his mixed record, this chapter asks, how useful is Dewey’s work as a resource for feminist philosophy? It begins with a survey of the intellectual influences that connect Dewey with a set of women family members, colleagues, and students. It then discusses Dewey’s influence on the work of late twentieth- and early twenty-first-century pragmatist feminist philosophers. Dewey’s influence has been strongest in the fields of feminist epistemology, philosophy of education, and social and political philosophy. Although pragmatist feminist philosophy remains a small field within feminist philosophy, this chapter argues that its conceptual resources could be put to further good use, particularly in feminist metaphysics, epistemology, and value theory.

Las Mujeres

Este artículo es un análisis revisionista del periodo que abarca la Guerra de la Independencia, el Estatuto de Bayona y la Constitución de 1812. Hacemos especial hincapié en la ausencia de las mujeres, por ello empleamos una epistemología feminista para analizar los textos jurídicos e históricos. También queremos hacer una puesta en valor de los recursos usados por las mujeres para dar a conocer su acervo cultural. Cuando les negaron la entrada a la Academia también dejaron fuera sus saberes.Palabras clave: Constitución de 1812, derechos, epistemología, género, mujeres.  Abstract: This paper is a revisionist analysis of the period between The Independence War, the Bayonne Statute and the Constitution of 1812.

When they were not allowed to become members of the Academy/Academia, their knowledge was also expelled with them.Key words]: Spanish Constitution of 1812, rights, epistemology, gender, women.

Point Of Departure

In this essay, I will discuss the importance of having an awareness about epistemic justice, epistemic ignorance and epistemic injustice, and why this awareness is important in connection to children and patients in mental health care. I also suggest ways to avoid epistemic injustice when working with, and doing research with, children in mental health care. In doing so, I tie this to feminist epistemology where conceptions such as knowledge, knowers and objectivity are questioned, and dominant conceptions and practices of knowledge production are perceived as a systematic disadvantage of women and other subordinated groups (Anderson, 2017). I am as well linking this to queer epistemology which differs from feminist standpoint epistemology in the idea of the identity being “a point of departure for shared consciousness” (Hall, 2017, p. 163).
