Equality, Difference and Feminist Theory
Abstract
One of the main aims of this study is to analyze the compatibility between equality and difference in feminist theory. In particular, I am interested in discussing the argument of some theorists and feminists who affirm that equality and difference are compatible in the legal field. My analysis will focus on the relationship between Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and the condition of women, verifying if, as a result of this relation, women suffer considerable changes. In this context, the introduction of difference seems to be indispensable to achieve equality and its effectiveness. I conclude that the juxtaposition of feminism of equality and feminism of difference could be overcome, and a form of lecture that tries to conciliate the two alternatives may be proposed.
