Third Wave Feminism And Feminist Patriarchy In Neoliberal Globalization eBook

In this work we use Mocombeian structurationist theory of phenomenological structuralism against feminist theories to put forth the argument that the third wave (1990 to the present) of feminine activism against the Protestant Ethic and the spirit of capitalism has given rise to feminine patriarchy. This is defined as the negative dialectical push by women for equality of opportunity, recognition, and distribution with their white male counterparts by recursively organizing and reproducing the patriarchy of the society, which is institutionalized as the nature of reality. Hence, women have pushed for integration and equality in the Protestant Ethic and the spirit of capitalism as gender neutral agents of the Protestant Ethic against any other alternative forms of system or social integration, which renders their historical activism negative dialectical, oppressive, and exploitative; they, paradoxically, reify, commodify, and glorify their sexual female identity as feminine men.
