Clancy advances a novel model of feminism whereby commitment to “radical” change (in her case, changing centralized, elitist, patriarchical, and hierarchical academic networks) is combined with MAINSTREAM scholarship. It is important for young female academics to study Clancy’s model for its possible utility in their own lives. It is, also, important for them to hear John Hawke’s caveat in his reply to Clancy’s blogpost that you link above: PUBLICATION is the way to scholarly independence and, one might add, to the recognition in their disciplines that these young women urgently wish to attain. I have created a running blogpost, The Clancy Effect, that some may find of interest. Though I applaud Clancy’s messages and her earnestness, my comments represent my personal analysis and are not devoid of criticism.
