Abstract

Given that Participatory Action Research (PAR) and Feminisms (Fem) share "process" as one of the fundamental principles in their philosophy and practice, we can only set the preliminary goal and objectives of the PARticipatory FEMinism Web Site (PARFem). This web site allows access to the following documents:

1.A Reader, "Selected Writings on Feminisms and Action Research," Prepared by Monica Ruiz-Casares and Nimat Hafez Barazangi

2.A Case Study, "Muslim Women in North America" (Audio) wherein Nimat Hafez Barazangi, based on her collaborative research, discusses the challenges facing American Muslim women in search of identity.

3.An electronic Bibliographic list, "Selected Writings on Feminisms and Action Research," compiled by Monica Ruiz-Casares (You may add/update any existing reference).

4.A video tape,"Feminisms and the Academy - Going Out of Business," by Patricia Maguire.

  1. Another Case Study, A video tape, "The Logic and Practice of the Participatory Action Research Paradigm," by Yoland Wadsworth.

6.A working paper, "Future of social sciences and humanities in corporate universities: Curricula, exclusions, inclusions, and voice," by Nimat Hafez Barazangi.
