Feminism

Discipline: Political Science

Analysis of exploitation of women, and proposals for alternatives.

The varieties of feminism are very great. All involve the assumption that, as a matter of observable fact, women are a category oppressed and exploited by men as a category.

Both the accounts of this division, and the proposals for reform, revolution, or transformation differ greatly.
