Getting the Word Out: La Diffusion de la Recherche Feministe Au Canada

Feminist scholarship is flourishing in Canada today. A steady increase in teaching, research, and writing by feminist scholars over the past decade has raised the essential question of how such scholarship should be communicated and to whom.
⁃ Should information be diffused through specifically feminist or through mainstream channels?
⁃ What are the opportunities and barriers that help or hinder publication of feminist works?
⁃ What has been the impact of feminist scholarship on the various sectors of society?
Important and timely issues such as these were addressed at the 1987 conference organized by the Social Science Federation of Canada, the Canadian Research Institute for the Advancement of Women, and the Canadian Women's Studies Association.

Les tudes sur les femmes sont en pleine expansion au Canada. En effet, les dix derni res ann es ont vu un essor constant tant dans l'enseignement que dans la recherche et dans les publications, essor qui am ne aujourd'hui les sp cialistes discuter de la diffusion de leurs travaux. Ainsi, quel a t l'impact de la recherche f ministe sur la soci t canadienne ? quelles conditions, favorables ou non, est
soumise la publication de tels ouvrages ? Est-il n cessaire de cr er des r seaux de communication sp cialement pour diffuser les r sultats des travaux f ministes?
Autant de questions d'actualit , qui ont t abord es lors de la conf rence de 1987 organis e par l'Institut canadien de recherches sur les femmes, l'Association canadienne des tudes sur les femmes et la F d ration canadienne des sciences sociales.
