The author argues that rather than seeing liberalism as
exclusionary of women's specificity, as many contemporary feminists
do, we should look at variations in liberalism, and in particular
at its democratisation in the nineteenth century, and at how
feminists have used liberalism as a resource. Liberalism is
analysed using a post-structuralist theory of hegemony: texts of
liberal political philosophy are deconstructed to show how the term
'women' is used as an 'undecidable' in the Derridean sense to
produce the opposition between feminine private and masculine
public spheres; these texts are then linked to liberal-democratic
social and political practices, including feminism as a social
movement.
