Naples (2002), "The Challenges and Possibilities of Transnational Feminist Praxis"

1. The "local" is a space of negotiation that allows women to collectively analyze social issues, even when the issues result from global policy.

2. A transnational feminist praxis emphasizes women's roles as agents of change across the globe. This means networking localities together on a global scale. Naples (2002) argues that a transnational feminist praxis should be rooted in "postliberalism" in which the role of the nation-state is de-emphasized in favor of networks between local collectives.
