Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Gender Studies, grade: 1,0, Karlsruhe University of Education, language: English, abstract: The topic of (Western) feminism has been spread widely and discussed in politics of western people’s everyday lives for many decades. Current discussions of gendered language in the West are just one example of ongoing fights for equality. This paper focusses on the topic and concept of Western feminism. It takes a closer look at the feminism which evolved in the Western world, precisely in Europe and the United States. It examines the question if the movement of Western feminism succeeded in liberation and self-determination for all women around the world or if said liberation was limited to a certain category of women from certain countries, because of certain (limited) perspectives.
