AnnotationThis article argues for the need for research in a feminist gerontology that is informed by post-modern and post-structuralist theories. Feminist gerontology is defined and described as part of a larger movement in the field toward critical gerontology. A brief summary of post-modern thought is followed by questions for researchers in gerontology and guidelines for feminist research which is interpretive, interactive, critical and change-oriented.
