Towards Comparative Analyses of Women's Political Praxis

Abstract

This article outlines three dimensions of a multi-dimensional standpoint analysis designed to generate knowledges about women's political praxis and highlights the dilemmas of this multi-dimensional standpoint approach for comparative analysis. I illustrate the three dimensions: standpoint as embodied in social identities, as a communal or relational achievement, and as an axis point of investigation, with research on the political perspectives and political practices of urban community workers from low income neighborhoods interviewed in the mid-1980s and the mid-1990s and community workers in two towns in rural Iowa interviewed between 1990 and 1996.
