Postphenomenology and Feminist Theory : Intersectionality, Gender, and Technology

A novel theoretical development of the combination of insights into feminist theory and postphenomenology.

While there has been growing interest in feminist theory within the philosophy of technology, there remains a lack of works dedicated to this focus. There has been greater success in integrating a focus on issues of gender feminist studies in the related (and larger) fields of philosophy of science and STS. The interdisciplinary and pluralistic nature of postphenomenology contributes to what appears to be, at least informally, a greater focus on gender diversity and greater interest in feminist theory within the postphenomenological community. This volume aims to fill these gaps within the philosophy of technology. The featured chapters include a number of feminist perspectives, including care ethics, feminist standpoint theory, black feminism, and feminist new materialism.
