Description
Summary:	Feminism gives an account of a paradoxical relation with sexual difference: it is needed in order to speak about and in the name of women (meaning it uses a category that is discursively produced through sexual difference) and it is denied in so far as sexual difference is conceptualized as a source of oppression. By invoking the name “woman”, feminism reproduces the sexual difference it seeks to eliminate. Through the method of disagreement as it is conceptualized in the work of Jacques Rancière, I hope to change the initial terms of this paradox in order to re-think the subject of feminism (this name “woman”). For this purpose, I set up the stage of a disagreement between two concepts that center the paradox (gender and sexual difference) and another that de-centers it (equality). The hypothesis advanced is that “woman” is not and cannot be the self-evident subject of feminism and is, in fact, the name of a void; the void of an identification with the impossible name of equality.
