How does feminist curiosity deepen epistemological and methodological reflections in feminist IR studies so as to produce critically engaged research on women and gendered subjects? Departing from a philosophical discussion, I argue that feminist curiosity provides a critical tool to interrogate the meanings of who, where and how in feminist and gender research, thereby establishing epistemological and methodological directions based on the reflexive nature of feminisms. Furthermore, I present a bibliometric panorama of the recent feminist output in two Brazilian IR journals in order to assess the way their pages express feminist curiosity. I conclude that national feminist research takes a critical stance in the country vis-à-vis Euro-American literature, focusing epistemologically and thematically on approaches emerging from the Global South.
