Notes on Subjectivity and Experience Authors Fina Birulés Universitat de Barcelona Abstract The aim of this paper is to underline the fact that, in most contemporary philosophical debates (and somehow, issues in feminist theory are not an exception), a well-known term is playing an important role: experience. We need a cartography of the uses of experience, if we want to know what we are talking about and also if we intend to analyze and to rethink the last 25 years of “women studies”, “gender studies” or “subaltern studies”.
