      ABSTRACT

      This chapter presents a framework for engaging with subculture through feminist methodology. Drawing upon research into the production of feminist zines in the UK, the chapter explores how some grassroots feminists negotiate their subcultural status as knowledge produces, and asks how a researcher might explore the collective aspects of grassroots feminism without promoting their own feminist values. The central objective of the chapter is to explore how researchers can avoid prioritising certain knowledge paradigms over others, while acknowledging how different ‘versions of feminism’ co-exist within zine subculture (Kempson, 2015a). To do this, the chapter (re)engages with C. Wright Mills’ (1959) explanation of how history, biography, and social structures intersect, and argues for the development of ‘intersectional epistemologies’ that are equipped explain how a researcher can engage reflexively with an internally diverse subcultural environment.
