Le Dictionnaire des femmes créatrices est né de la volonté de mettre en lumière la création des femmes à travers le monde et l'histoire, de rendre visible leur apport à la civilisation. Pensé comme une contribution inédite au patrimoine culturel mondial, il a été rendu possible par plus de quatre décennies d'engagements et de travaux en France et dans tous les pays, qui ont permis de renouer avec une généalogie jusque-là privée de mémoire. Il entend recenser les créatrices connues ou encore méconnues qui, individuellement ou ensemble, ont marqué leur temps et ouvert des voies nouvelles dans un des champs de l'activité humaine. Son chantier d'étude couvre tous les continents, toutes les époques, tout le répertoire traditionnel des disciplines (artistiques, littéraires, philosophiques aussi bien que scientifiques) et il s'étend des sportives aux femmes politiques, en passant par les interprètes, les conteuses, les artisanes, fussent-elles anonymes, à toutes celles qui ont fait oeuvre originale. Le terme de "création" est ici entendu dans son sens le plus vaste...

Is Science Multicultural? explores what the last three decades of European/American, feminist, and postcolonial science and technology studies can learn from each other. Sandra Harding introduces and discusses an array of postcolonial science studies, and their implications for "northern" science. All three science studies strains have developed in the context of post-World War II science and technology projects. They illustrate how technoscientific projects mean different things to different groups. The meaning attached by the culture of the West may not be shared or may be diametrically opposite in the cultures in other parts of the world. All, however, would agree that scientific projects—modern science included—are "local knowledge systems." The interests and discursive resources that the various science studies bring groups to their projects, and the ways that they organize the production of their kind of science studies, are distinctively culturally-local also. While their projects may be unintentionally converging, they also conflict in fundamental respects. How is this inevitable cultural-situatedness of knowledge both an invaluable resource as well as a limitation on the advance of knowledge about nature? What are the distinctive resources that the feminist and postcolonial science theorists offer in thinking about the history of modern science; the diversity of "scientific" traditions in non-European as well as in European cultures; and the directions that might be taken by less androcentric and Eurocentric scientific projects? How might modern sciences' projects be linked more firmly to the prodemocratic yearnings that are so widely voiced in contemporary life? Carefully balancing poststructuralist and conventional epistemological resources, this study concludes by proposing new directions for thinking about objectivity, method, and reflexivity in light of the new understandings developed in the post-World War II world.
