Feminist Research and Paradigm Shift in AnthropologyKeywords: Marilyn Strathern , feminist research , social anthropology , paradigm , isomorphism , the Other Abstract: In her paper ‘An Awkward Relationship: the Case of Feminism and Anthropology’, Marilyn Strathern argues that feminist research cannot produce a paradigm shift in social anthropology.
