Abstract
In this paper, I draw on three waves of feminist geography to investigate the
development of feminist geography and the environment of academy geography in
Taiwan. The study shows that while feminism has gone through three waves of
development, it is hardly taught and discussed in local academy. While there are many
thorny gender issues inside and outside the academy, little gender-related research was
held. Within the handful gender-related works, not much was informed by feminist
ontology, epistemology, methodology and issues raised by the second and third wave
feminism. In general, feminist geography and gender issues have not been taken
seriously. Local academy geography still keeps itself in rigid barrier and leaves little
spaces for feminism. Although constrains set by nationalism, chauvinism and
academic capitalism structures may have caused it, passive reaction by the academy
allows the structural constrains unquestioned and prevailed. It is time to take action to
raise gender consciousness. We need to introduce feminist-oriented ontology,
epistemology and methodology and critique current gender-blind habitués, institutions
and research works. We must walk out of the isolated cave and unite with other
feminists to put pressure on the academy. With all these efforts we can then start to
imagine and establish more gender-friendly environment and knowledge.
