Although feminist theory and critical race theory engage questions about human nature and subjectivity, criteria of legitimacy, philosophies of history, structures of power, forms of social and communal organization; and characteristics of a just polity, questions that are central concerns of political theorists, these distinctive theoretical approaches are often ignored, neglected, or marginalized within the subfield of political theory. This article examines the dimensions, causes, and political implications of such exclusion.
