Beschreibung:
This essay examines the work of Nancy Fraser and Seyla Benhabib, two philosophers who have demonstrated that feminist theorists can usefully draw upon both postmodernism and the critical theory tradition, with which Fraser and Benhabib are more clearly associated. I argue that each theorist claims the universal ideals and normative judgments of modernism, and the contextualism, particularity, and skepticism of postmodernism. I do this by revisiting each of their positions in the now well-known "feminist contentions" exchange, by examing the diverse ways in which they reconcile universalism and difference, and by exploring each theorist's critique of the Habermasian public sphere
