The author incorporates feminist and postcolonial problematizations of the subject concept. These imply a fundamental questioning of subjective, critical agency. In order to prevent having to completely reject this concept, she reconstructs three theoretical perspectives (Judith Butler, Michel Foucault, Karl Marx) with varying range and focus, which nevertheless indeed share the conceptualization of subjective agency as an effect of contradictory structures. In doing so, she does not focus on the – certainly existing – contradictions between the approaches, but compares them in the form of a synopsis.
