SORU:

What do you know about liberal feminism?


CEVAP:

Liberal feminism advocates for equality between the sexes through social and political reforms, and legal means; they argue that only with the attainment of equal rights between men and women, feminism can reach its objective
(Maynard, 1995: 260; Walby, 1990: 4; Brenner, 1987: 448-449).

As a point of departure, liberal feminism explores the personal interactions of men and women in order to find ways in which societies are transformed into
a more “gender-equitable” places. Liberal feminism rejects the claim that the inclusion of women in the power structure of international society would
change the nature of IR. On the contrary, they believe that their inclusion in the power structure would amount to comparable results. Liberal feminists, in that respect, support the idea of integrating women into the male dominant fields
such as foreign policymaking and the military (Tür and Aydın Koyuncu, 2010: 14).
