Conflictul natură - cultură ca frână
The Nature - Culture Conflict as a Brake

Summary/Abstract: There are some dangers that stand in the way of women’s emancipation, from their very traditional sex-discriminated place in the Romanian society. In this paper, the author is focusing on the fallacy of using the model of emancipation, specific ways and certain ends – methods which are not concerned about the wide differences between classes, customs, desires and personalities of women. The author is focusing on the fallacy of using the model of nature/culture dichotomy and on the idea that we have to use, if we want to help the Romanian women, a specific model of life – like the feminist Anglo-Saxon model (strong individualism, a strict autonomy, etc) – and the author underlies that if this is done, they are nothing else but other kind of masters of women: feminist masters.
