Fraternity and Women. An Essay in Conceptual History

Fraternity, Women, Contractualism.Abstract
In the revolutionary sense that it had in the French Triad, Fraternity is today an eclipsed value, as I attempt to show. 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.
