Preferred term

feminist political ecology  

Definition

  • Feminist political ecology represents the most recent movement to advocate for the equality of women in political, social, and economic settings, and for a substantial change in the recognition of women's role in society. Historical examples in this ongoing struggle point to Aristophanes' study of the strong feminist assertiveness in Lysistrata, the 19th century writings of Charlotte Brontë, and early feminist advocates like Emmeline Pankhurst, who worked to undo the political aspects of female subjugation and to bring about female suffrage.
