Minotaurus! 't Is 'n veelslachtig wezen met 'n muil als een statenbybel, en 'n reusachtige breikous tot achterlyf dat uitloopt in 'n borduurnaald.' Tegen dit monster, symbool voor de christelijke zeden en gewoonten van zijn tijd, nam Multatuli het hartstochtelijk op. Ten behoeve van vrouwen, want aan De minotaurus onzer zeden werden alleen vrouwen geofferd. En tot aansporing van vrouwen, want vrouwen moesten het monster vooral ook zelf te lijf gaan. Tijdens Multatuli's leven, maar ook nog lang nadien, zijn er vrouwen én mannen geweest die zijn ideeën daadwerkelijk als aansporing hebben gelezen

This article is focused on Professor Buikema's intellectual oeuvre and the relation between art and politics as it materialised in MOED (Museum of Equality and Difference). Astrid Kerchman and Rosa Wevers, MOED's former project coordinators, reflect on their collaboration with Buikema through an interview with artist Iris Kensmil on the important role of art in complex social issues relating to emancipation, representation, and resistance. Drawing on the interview with Kensmil and Buikema's Revolts in Cultural Critique (2020), Alessandra Benedicty-Kokken reflects on the meaning of feminist leadership within an institutional context.

Three stages of Dutch research on women & politics are delineated: (1) early research aimed at filling the gaps in knowledge about women's political participation & attitudes; (2) in the second stage, research addressed issues raised by feminism & debates about the scope of the political, & (3) in a now emerging third stage, interest is renewed in the major concepts of the Western political tradition, in which the genderedness of concepts is at stake. This stage may lead to a new paradigm for the discipline, relinking normative with empirical concerns. It is precisely the dominance of the empirical tradition in the Netherlands that prevents the incorporation of insights derived from feminist theory in the analysis of political behavior; however, reappraisal of the normative dimension & the domain of the discipline may reverse this trend. 114 References.
