Once More, With Feeling: Feminist Economics and the Ontological Question

Is it worthwhile for feminist economists to delve into questions about the nature of reality?

The author contends that a "process" approach to characterizing the nature of reality is more appropriate and that this approach demarginalizes feminist concerns with emancipation and care.
