Abstract:Alison Jaggar in her masterpiece, Feminist Politics and Human Nature, advances a concept of "alienation," as opposed to the concept of "class," as one that would provide a theoretical framework to analyze the oppression of the contemporary women. In Jaggar's eyes, alienation has been a woman's main and general experience in capitalist society. The alienation of women, as a common state of existence in capitalist society, is the result of capitalism and patriarchy unifying and reinforcing each other. However, eliminating class and gender discrepancies are both required in women's liberation.
