This research focuses on the concepts of female freedom,
independence, liberty, and a feminine ideal within
Western-European, American, and Ukrainian traditions. The study
explores the works of Friedan, Elshtain, Steinem, de Beauvoir,
Kobrynska, Kobylianska, and Ukrainka. While Western women-centered
thinkers prioritized economic, social, and political issues with
regard to woman's position in the public and private realms,
Ukrainian female writers, in contrast, drew extensively from their
national stories, ancient and modern. Christianity and spiritual
ideals had a much stronger influence on Ukrainian writers than
political or economic theories. "Feminists despite themselves,"
these Ukrainian authors embodied the characters that they created
in their radical and transformational beliefs and actions. Both
traditions share similar concerns with the dilemmas facing
contemporary women in their respective societies. Common dangers
and costs threaten woman's full liberation under a global market
economy where male privilege remains entrenched. Without full
participation of women in decision-making processes, democracy for
women can be eroded in the West and stifled in Ukraine.
