Abstract

This chapter introduces some central issues and themes in feminist philosophical engagements with metaphysics. It provides an outline of what feminist metaphysics typically deals with and how to understand what this putative sub-discipline of metaphysics aims to achieve. One issue that has been increasingly discussed is whether feminist and “mainstream” metaphysics are compatible. The paper considers this question and examines whether one prominent strand of contemporary analytic metaphysics, Frank Jackson’s “serious metaphysics,” undermines feminist metaphysics. In so doing, the paper first presents in more detail themes central to feminist metaphysics. Next it outlines Jackson’s view. Finally, the paper will consider the compatibility of feminist and “serious” metaphysics, concluding that feminist metaphysics both is and is not compatible with Jackson’s metaphysics, depending on how we understand his project. Nevertheless, the paper suggests that this may not be because feminist metaphysicians are misguided in some sense; rather, issues internal to Jackson’s view generate the gap.
形而上学
本章介绍了女权主义哲学与形而上学的一些中心问题和主题。它概述了女权主义形而上学通常涉及的内容,以及如何理解这一假定的形而上学分支旨在实现的目标。越来越多的人讨论的一个问题是,女权主义和“主流”形而上学是否兼容。本文考虑了这个问题,并考察了当代分析形而上学的一个突出流派——弗兰克·杰克逊的“严肃形而上学”——是否破坏了女权主义形而上学。在此过程中,本文首先更详细地介绍了女权主义形而上学的核心主题。接下来概述了杰克逊的观点。最后,本文将考虑女权主义形而上学和“严肃”形而上学的兼容性,得出的结论是,女权主义形而上学与杰克逊的形而上学既兼容又不兼容,这取决于我们如何理解他的项目。然而,这篇论文认为,这可能并不是因为女权主义形而上学家在某种意义上被误导了;相反,是杰克逊观点的内部问题造成了这种差距。
