Feminist Praxis Challenges the Identity Question: Toward New Collective Identity Metaphors

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  11 March 2020

Abstract

The analysis of difference and identity questions brought Iris Marion Young to develop a metaphor of collective identity, the city, which included the diversity that characterizes all human groups. This article honors Iris Marion Young by challenging the question of identity in contemporary feminism and social sciences. María Martínez González argues that we need new identity and collective identity metaphors in order to understand the complexity of contemporary feminist praxis.
