The agenda of contemporary western feminism focuses on equal participation in work and education, reproductive rights, and sexual freedom. But what does feminism mean to the women of rural India who work someone else's fields, young Thai girls in the sex industry in Bangkok, or Filipino maids working for wealthy women in Hong Kong? In this 1998 book, Chilla Bulbeck presents a bold challenge to the hegemony of white, western feminism in this incisive and wide-ranging exploration of the lived experiences of 'women of colour'. She examines debates on human rights, family relationships, sexuality, and notions of the individual and community to show how their meanings and significance in different parts of the world contest the issues which preoccupy contemporary Anglophone feminists. She then turns the focus back on Anglo culture to illustrate how the theories and politics of western feminism are viewed by non-western women.

Uma Narayan tente de clarifier le contenu de la notion féministe de "privilège épistemique des opprimé-es". Elle soutient que le privilege épistémique des "initié-es" opprimé-es concernant leur oppression suscite des problèmes de dialogue et de politique de coalition avec les "non-initié-es" qui eux, ne subissant pas cette oppression, n'arrivent pas à se réconcilier au privilege épistémique des initié-es. Elle analyse concrètement comment les non-initié-es peuvent par inadvertance blesser les initié-es, et elle propose des moyens permettant de minimiser ces problèmes.
