With the formation of the Gender and Geography Commission in 1992 and the bringing together of feminist geographers across the globe, Anglo dominance persisted, if not reinforced, in its privileging of certain theoretical approaches and hegemony of English in the production and circulation of knowledge and highly unequal access to prestigious journals. A decade later Maria Dolors Garcia Ramon (2003) commented “that access to these journals means power to set the guidelines of the intellectual debate in geography in many regions of the world” and concluded by asking how one might engage and overcome the closures produced by the hegemonic power of English. Fifteen years later, the editors of a special issue celebrating the 25thanniversary of Gender, Place and Culture(Blidon and Zaragocin 2019) noted that although feminist geography had spread well beyond the Anglo world and become more pluralistic in its discussions, the production and circulation of knowledge remains unequal. This paper examines to what extent the subordination of non-Anglo traditions continues and what challenges remain in bringing about a more inclusive gender and geography.
