Radical Feminism, as stated, 20th c.-present

20th Century · stated scope

Compare with another entity →

Radical feminism is a political ideology that locates the origins of social inequality in structures of patriarchy, understood as a system in which male dominance over women is foundational rather than incidental. It emerged as a distinct current primarily in the United States and Western Europe during the late 1960s and 1970s, developing out of second-wave feminist organizing and in partial divergence from liberal and socialist feminisms. It is principally associated with theoretical frameworks centered on sex-based oppression, analyses of institutions such as marriage and reproductive labor, and advocacy for fundamental restructuring of social relations rather than reform within existing systems.

Liberty is the defining elevation, with Consent & Anti-Coercion running high beside it; Authority & Hierarchy sits low. Individual freedom leads the profile rather than any collective commitment.
