Explanation:
Despite the appearance of an extensive literature on women's movements and the steady growth since the mid-1970's in works which offer a critical, feminist engagement with political theoryi, discussion of the broader implications of women's politics remains a relatively unexamined aspect of the development literature. There have been some recent attempts to redress this absenceii, yet it is as if the debate within feminist political theory and the field of development studies have pursued parallel paths with little real engagement with each other. This is all the more remarkable given the impact of women's movements on policymaking and politics in the developing world. Meanwhile, the analysis of women's movements both historically and cross-culturally, has demonstrated the range and diversity of the forms of solidarity women have engaged in, and has alerted us to the factors both structural and symbolic which are significant in particular casesiii. Yet it could be said, without too much fear of exaggeration, that the attention devoted to women's movements has had at least two negative consequences. In the first place, it has tended to marginalise discussion and analysis of other political phenomena which are of at least as much significance both for what they have contributed to our thinking about institutional arenas for advancing women's interests, and for what they have achieved in practiceiv. Secondly, some of the dominant assumptions about women's movements found in the development literature remain quite problematic. In what follows I shall offer some thoughts on the ways in which contemporary debates about women's movements might be moved on to address the new context which gender politics confronts in the developing countries..
