Summary/Abstract: Contemporary feminist theories have related to all the tendencies of contemporary philosophy. Within that context these theories have tried to make up for feminine subjectivity missing from modern philosophy and, at the same lime, answer to all the challenges of postmodern philosophy, where that subject is being questioned and, where, as opposed to the story of the One, a question of the Other is being raised. Therefore, paradoxically, parallel to establishing an identity, differences arc being taken into account. However, the space allowed for differences would jeopardise the agency of the feminine political subject. This introductory text to the translations that follow and even more the translations themselves, attempt to answer the question, whether these two theoretical options of identity and difference of the feminine political subject, are the only ones left.
