女性主义技术科学研究标志着当代女性主义科学研究的后人类主义转向。它以哈拉维的情境知识论和赛博本体论为主要理论来源及思想动力,以图安娜的互动主义、芭拉德的能动实在论和格罗兹的身体研究为代表,主张将对科学技术的批判与对父权制文化、性别关系和身份政治的批判结合起来,引导人们在技术科学实践和文化中去探究科学与技术、性别、自然(包括身体)、文化(社会)等之间辩证互动和异质融合的后人类主义特征的内在动态关系。这有效地摆脱了当前女性主义研究中生物决定论和社会建构论之争所陷入的本质主义表征困境。
Feminism Technoscience Studies mark the Posthumanism turn of contemporary feminist science studies. They are derived from Donna Haraway's situated knowledge theory and eyborg on- tology and represented by Nancy Tuana's interaetionism, Karen Barad's agential realism, and Eliz- abeth Grosz's body studies. They argue the critique of science and technology should be combined with the posthumanism critique of patriarchy culture, gender relationship and identification politics, guiding people to explore the inherent dynamic relationships of post-humanism characteristics of dia- lectical interaction and heterogeneous integration between science and technology, gender, nature (including body), and culture (society), which e[[ectively avoid the dilemma of representationalism brought by the debates between biological determinism and social construetionism in current feminist studies.
