This paper starts with the question if the posthuman feminism can provide our contemporary period of "informatics of domination" with a new feminist epistemology and vision. For the answer to this question, firstly, it reviews the major posthuman feminist, Donna Haraway"s feminist epistemology and sexual polities focusing on her "Cyborg Manifesto" and also Katherine Hayles" posthuman epistemology in general.
The second section focuses on Haraway"s "situated knowledge" at the center of her epistemology, a concept suggested as a feminist alternative to the universal and essential knowledge of science.
Thirdly, the study briefly reviews the criticism of the major feminist critics such as Ann Balsamo, Judith Squires, Claudia Springer, Sadie Plant and Mary Ann Doane against Haraway"s cyborg feminism,
This paper also borrows Chela Sandoval"s view on Haraway"s cyborg epistemology and thus tries to find a linkage between postcolonial feminism and posthuman feminism. Sandoval contends that Haraway"s cyborg politics appeared not only with the development of the technology but also in close relationship with the resistance against the oppression of the Third World laborers within the U. S. A.
The final section points out a few problems embedded in Haraway"s cyborg epistemology and its sexual politics such as its lack of the discussion of fantasy and unconsciousness and the problem of defining feminist subject outside of the boundary of sexuality.
