Why Race and Gender Still Matter: An Intersectional Approach

Why Race and Gender Still Matter

An Intersectional Approach

Intersectionality, the attempt to bring theories on race, gender, disability and sexuality together, has existed for decades as a theoretical framework. Despite this it remains almost entirely absent from contemporary philosophical thinking. The essays in this volume explore how intersectionality can be applied to modern philosophy, as well as looking at other disciplines – political science, education, law, art and history – where work on philosophical intersectionalism is already developing.
