Over the past decade, an impressive body of feminist criticism of social and political theory has been written, work which raises far-reaching questions about conventional assumptions and methods, and reveals how feminist theorists challenge the fundamental presuppositions and categories of "male-stream" theory. The essays in this collection break new ground by going beyond analysis of classic texts or examination of "women's issues." Texts and issues are placed in a wider theoretical perspective which brings the patriarchal construction of theory itself into question. Major themes explored include: the relationship of women and feminism to the theoretical tradition; the problem of "equality"; the theoretical significance of sexual difference and the female body; and the development of feminist theoretical alternatives. "Feminist challenges" is essential reading for students in the social sciences and humanities concerned with theoretical issues.

As Carole Pateman notes in her introduction, ‘all the contributors raise some extremely far-reaching questions about the conventional assumptions and methods of contemporary social and political inquiry.’
