FEMINISM AND DEMOCRACY - CRITICISM AND REINTERPRETATION

Summary/Abstract: Democracy is based on the premise of eliminating all the differences based on such factors as gender, race, class, ethnicity, age, by defining all who belong to the community as equal citizens enjoying the same rights and duties. However, feminist critics clearly show that the hidden premises underlying various democratic systems can to a great extent differentiate the position of women and men in the given political community. The objective of this article is to show the feminist critiąue of democratic theories and attempts at reinterpreting them which aim at fuller inclusion of women in the democratic system.
