The
provocative title of this paper raises questions about the relationship
between three dynamic components of contemporary feminist politics.
The neutral image of the triad , “ a group or set of three”
does not adequately acknowledge the evolutionary nature of the
history of the relationship between these elements ( activism/feminism
precedes gender studies), nor their dynamic inter-relationship
towards a shared vision of social emancipation.
The paper argues that Gender Studies uprooted from its grounding
in feminist activism will falter and become a self-serving
adjunct of the academic status quo; that the synergy
between activism, feminism and gender studies is not
essentially elusive for the project directed to ending
sexist oppression and exploitation, thus engendering
women’s empowerment and transformation in society.
