The concept "intersectionality", coined by Kimberlé Crenshaw in 1989, has been widely used in a vast array of context and disciplines, transcending the field of Critical Race Theory. The main goal of the present research is to introduce some of the relevant theoretical tools for the generation of the notion "intersectionality". The chosen method is a review of Crenshaw’s first four texts. Since her work is widely read and highly influential, an analysis of her thought is carried out in order to grasp which references and which issues are addressed by the term "intersectionality".
