Democracy is the central political issue of our age, yet debates
over its nature and goals rarely engage with feminist concerns. Now
that women have the right to vote, they are thought to present no
special problems of their own. But despite the seemingly
gender-neutral categories of individual or citizen, democratic
theory and practice continues to privilege the male.
This book reconsiders dominant strands in democratic thinking –
focusing on liberal democracy, participatory democracy, and
twentieth century versions of civic republicanism – and approaches
these from a feminist perspective. Anne Phillips explores the
under-representation of women in politics, the crucial relationship
between public and private spheres, and the lessons of the
contemporary women’s movement as an experience in participatory
democracy.
