Repensar el patriarcado. ¿Más allá de la condición de víctima de la mujer?

Abstract

Rethinking patriarchy. Beyond victim condition of woman? In this article, I analyze Gerda Lerner’s common negative, on one hand, and of Elizabeth Badinter, on the other, to recognize the victim status of women in patriarchy. My analysis leans on the idea of patriarchy as social structure of two philosophers which, in spite of have elaborated two different systems, both agree in this point: Karen Warren and Catharine MacKinnon. At the same time, my analysis leans on the exposure of some overwhelming true facts and I wonder how far is favorable the refusal to see an evident reality that determines us and which, paradoxicaly, is necessary for the emerging of our liberty.
