Description: Feminism has long concerned itself with the conditions under which knowledge is produced. Poststructural feminism has focused on the problem of working within and against the foundational categories of knowledge such as voice, authenticity and agency. This chapter examines the benefits of an empirical approach to working with and against foundational categories by spotlighting particular occasions when the production of knowledge from ethnography becomes difficult because of intersubjective, emotional and ethical reasons.
