SOCIAL SCIENCE – Women’s Studies

What exactly is feminism and why does it draw so much media attention? Why do people talk about it so much? Why do people love to engage in passionate debates about it?

This introduction to feminism delves into an unbiased look at the history of feminism, from its first recorded beginnings to the present time. Through an exploration of the diverse definitions of feminism and why it has been misinterpreted and misjudged because of media prejudice and misunderstanding, we learn that feminism, at its core, is a belief that all human beings should be valued in her/his own right.
