Psychology, differences & inequalities: limits & possibilities of a feminist gender perspective

Abstract

In this paper I propose some reflections on the role of gender perspective in the construction of the psychological knowledge, examining the implications and limitations of some of the lines developed up to the moment in this area to the treatment of differences and to answer to questions of inequality, to finally suggest some proposals to tackle the study of gender power relations and the construction of critical knowledges which could encourage the advance towards equality and social justice.
