Intersectionality (or intersectional theory) is a term first coined in 1989 by American civil rights advocate and leading scholar of critical race theory, KimberlÃ© Williams Crenshaw. It is the study of overlapping or intersecting social identities and related systems of oppression, domination, or discrimination.
Intersectionality is an important paradigm for sociology and cultural studies, but difficulties arise due to the many complexities involved in making multidimensional conceptualizations that explain the way in which socially constructed categories of differentiation interact to create a social hierarchy.nstead, these forms of oppression interrelate, creating a system of oppression that reflects the intersection of multiple forms of discrimination. A standard textbook example of intersectionality theory is the view that women experience oppression in varying configurations and in varying degrees of intensity.
