Abstract : Woman As Nomad: An Alternative Configuration Of Female Subjectivity Ozden SOZALAN The most challenging task feminism has to tackle today is to chart the ground on which to base its politics due to the simple fact that questions of definitions and contexts overlap as the histories of colonialism, capitalism, race and gender are viewed as interrelated. Rosi Braidotti's theorising of a new model of female feminist subjectivity in a nomadic mode responds to the women's homelessness formulated as far back as 1938 by Virginia Woolf. Her theory questions a certain form of internationalism which was, for historical reasons, led by the hegemony of white western feminists. Understood as a model for intersubjective relationships, the nomadic mode also foregrounds multiculturalism not only as a difference between cultures but also as a difference between the same culture, and within every self.
