Cultural Alterity: Cross-Cultural Communication and Feminist Theory in North-South Contexts
Hypatia 13 (2):53 - 72 (1998)
| Abstract | How to communicate with "the other" who is culturally different from oneself is one of the greatest challenges facing North-South relations. This paper builds on existential-phenomenological and poststructuralist concepts of alterity and difference to strengthen the position of Latina and other subaltern speakers in North-South dialogue. It defends a postcolonial approach to feminist theory as a basis for negotiating culturally differentiated feminist positions in this age of accelerated globalization, migration, and displacement | |||||||||
