title = "Foucault, feminism and history",
abstract = "Michel Foucault's contribution to postmodern history has been widely discussed, critiqued and admired. Several major theoretical works have addressed the idea that theorists can appropriate Foucauldian theory for feminist means. I wish to merge these two areas of analysis and consider the use (and abuse) of Foucault for feminist history. In order to do so I offer a two-fold examination: first, of the significance of Foucauldian modes of analysis for feminist theories; and second, a consideration of Foucault's relevance for feminist historians. The aim is to examine the potential for a feminist alliance with Foucault and to explore its political ramifications.",
