Abstract
ENG: The article aims to conceptualize the architectonics of the feminist philosophy under the theoretical conditions of metamodernism. In this context, it emphasizes the importance of the multidisciplinary research methods. By adopting a gender-differentiated methodology we accentuate the stable relationship between women and the problem of subjectivity, which is still mainly based on the ideology narratives and discourses. As the concept of gender identity is becoming more and more multilateral, it is obvious that its problematizing is closely linked with the concept of identification, which is considered more valid under the conditions of metamodernity. Social identity is still one of the grand narratives in social, political, and philosophic sciences: in contrast to single-hypothesis theories, it is complex and dynamic – gender identification is by all means under the metamodern “umbrella,” too. In contrast to gender identification, feminist approaches are logically straight, being based on the dichotomy “male-female”. The metamodern “pendulum” has swung in the opposite direction to question the postmodern principles, yet the fundamentals of the postmodern philosophy and feminist studies stay remarkably stable. Concerning a certain misunderstanding of feminist philosophy in traditional academic circles, it should be emphasized that it seems an exaggeration to talk about completely different conceptions and meanings of feminist philosophy and gender studies: the main problem remains with the concept of the human nature of men and women.
