  The Virgin Mary Connection: Reflecting on Feminism and Northern Irish Politics
 
 
Title: The Virgin Mary Connection: Reflecting on Feminism and Northern Irish Politics
Author: Ashe, Fidelma
Appeared in: Critical review of international social and political philosophy
Paging: Volume 9 (2006) nr. 4 pages 573-588
Year: 2006-12-01
Contents: Academic feminists have turned to feminist theory to develop ways of managing or solving ethnic antagonisms, especially among feminists/women in Northern Ireland. This essay troubles the application of feminist theory to conflict resolution/management in Northern Ireland. It examines the impact of this type of deployment of theory on key feminist categories such as identity and difference. It also considers what becomes marginalised from the analysis of gender politics in Northern Ireland when feminist theory is harnessed to solving/managing the Northern Ireland problem. The essay concludes by arguing for the development of alternative feminist frameworks that are not contained within the boundaries of a search for solutions.
