Intersectionality as buzzword

Updated: Oct 26, 2021



Davis, K. (2008). Intersectionality as buzzword: A sociology of science perspective on what makes a feminist theory successful. Feminist theory, 9(1), 67-85.


There is a lot of buzz (and misunderstanding) about intersectionality. In this article, Davis defines intersectionality as "the interaction between gender, race, and other categories of difference in individual lives, social practices, institutional arrangements, and cultural ideologies and the outcomes of these interactions in terms of power."

This is a really insightful article! I appreciate how Davis unpacks intersectionality beyond just being a buzzword and emphasizes its significance in understanding power dynamics. The definition provided — where intersectionality looks at how gender, race, and other categories of difference interact in various aspects of life — really helps clarify why it's so vital in feminist theory. ragdoll hit

Fantastic blog! Do you have any tips and hints for aspiring writers? I’m planning to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you propose starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I’m completely overwhelmed .. Any suggestions? Many thanks! 20 folding electric bike
