Abstract

BERTOMEU, María Julia. Fraternity and Women. An Essay in Conceptual History. Estud.filos [online]. 2012, n.46, pp.9-24. ISSN 0121-3628.

In the revolutionary sense that it had in the French Triad, Fraternity is today an eclipsed value, as I attempt to show.² In this paper I am particularly interested in researching the causes of the abandonment of the political value of fraternity in much of contemporary feminist political thought, though not exclusively in the Anglo-Saxon world. As I argue, this abandonment or rejection is partly a result of the general eclipse of the concept, and especially of the abandonment of the emancipatory nature of the Revolutionary Triad, but that it also has its own roots, as I try to prove.

Keywords : Fraternity; Women; Contractualism.
