SUMMARY:Intersectionality: Conceptual Challenges
DESCRIPTION:               Recent work within analytic feminist philosophy 
 has focused mainly on analysis on gender and race and\, to a lesser degree
 \, sexuality and class. It has also been acknowledged that these categorie
 s interact in complex ways in subjects giving raise to specific kinds of o
 ppressions. Intersectionality\, with its origins within the black feminist
  thought\, is the concept that aims at capturing this multiplicity and com
 plexity. Despite its relevance for contemporary theoretical and empirical 
 research\, as well as for political action\, it has not received much atte
 ntion from analytic feminism. In this talk\, I aim at contributing to some
  philosophical development by presenting different conceptual problems\, a
 nd thus challenges to be taken\, involved in intersectionality research: t
 he nature of the relation among social categories\, the adequacy and possi
 bility of associated metaphors\, the analysis of intersectional experience
 \, and the nature and functioning of different levels of social reality. A
 gainst the background of these challenges I evaluate some current views an
 d I finally sketch an account that provides answers to those questions.
