Femin(in)ology

Summary/Abstract: This article treats matriarchy as social representation. Invented in XIX th century by evolutionist masculine thinking, revived by some radical feminists from the late 70', this myth is very much criticised by the anthropologists. The author shows that at the theoretical level to legitimate the social construction of the traditional condition of women whose core is the reproductive and mothering function serves very well, unlike empowering them for political action.
