Sažetak

The paper presents and overview of the development of feminsit anthropology from the time of its institutionalization, attempting at depicting the variety of theories and ethnographic practices. The feministically oriented female anthropologists question the dominant model of research and and develop a critique of sexism in science. By introducing the perspective of manifoldly constructed sex - the perspective of gender - female scholars have contributed to the post modernist transformation of social disciplines and have opened a series of new or neglected methodological issues. At the same time different theoretical thoughts and attempts at making a different epistemology are created within the feminist corpus itself. The feminist scientific paradigm has divided into two oppositegroups when discussing the terms of universality and difference, essentialism and deconstructivism, and the introduction of the term gender. Today, we speak of the feminist ethnographies and recognize the different approaches or neads of the female researchers and the female informants.
