Argument and Community in the Markets Debate

Feminist Economics (1997)

Barbara E. Hopkins

Abstract

In this essay, I use personal experiences in the markets debate to illustrate how relationships of power are used to silence opposing arguments and dominate debate. I argue that presentation of women's experience and building on previous research by feminists must be accepted as valid arguments in a feminist community. Finally, I urge feminists to work together and reject these power plays.
