Question

Within this ideology, the tension between the situated knowledge thesis and the thesis of epistemic privilege gives rise to a “bias paradox.” Sandra Harding coined the term “strong objectivity” as part of standpoint epistemology, which originated from this ideology. The Death of Nature was written as part of a movement that prefixes this framework with “eco-.” Care ethics (10[1]-5[1])is sometimes grouped (-5[1])within the difference approach of this movement, both of which are criticized for essentialism. A book that is sometimes considered an early proponent of this ideology criticizes the depiction of Sophia’s education in Émile. That book on the “Vindication” of rights was written by a forerunner of this movement, Mary Wollstonecraft. For 10 points, name this movement that theorized the patriarchy. (10[1])■END■ (10[1])
