La question qui m’a été adressée -comment se manifeste ton engagement féministe dans tes recherches et dans tes actions? -, m’interpelle sur trois fronts puisque je suis féministe, que je milite depuis plusieurs années et que je fais partie de la classe privilégiée des universitaires. Étudiante au doctorat en sociologie, je travaille actuellement sur la Marche mondiale des femmes en tant que processus de mobilisation collective sexué (D. Kergoat, 1992). Processus dont je suis partie prenante et au sein duquel j’ai eu l’occasion d’effectuer une immersion particulière au cours de l’année 2000, en participant à titre d’étudiante – stagiaire à l’équipe d’organisation et de coordination au niveau international. Et à toutes ces choses, correspond un même préalable dans mon parcours : l’expérience de l’oppression patriarcale.

The past decade has seen a proliferation of writing by feminist economists. Feminist economists are not identified with one particular economic paradigm, yet some common methodological points seem to be emerging. I propose making these starting points more explicit so that they can be examined, critiqued, and built upon. I use the term “social provisioning” to describe this emerging methodology. Its five main components are: incorporation of caring and unpaid labor as fundamental economic activities; use of well-being as a measure of economic success; analysis of economic, political, and social processes and power relations; inclusion of ethical goals and values as an intrinsic part of the analysis; and interrogation of differences by class, race-ethnicity, and other factors. The paper then provides brief illustrations of the use of this methodology in analyses of US welfare reform, gender and development, and feminist ecological economics.

The aim of the article is to further assess and develop feminist standpoint theory by introducing the notion of the ‘situated imagination’ as constituting an important part of this theory as well as that of ‘situated knowledge’. The article argues that the faculty of the imagination constructs as well as transforms, challenges and supersedes both existing knowledge and social reality. However, like knowledge, it is crucial to theorize the imagination as situated, that is, as shaped and conditioned (although not determined) by social positioning.
