Abstract for 10. WOMEN’S SELF-DEFINITION IN MARY BEARD’S WOMEN AND POWER: AN ANGLO-WOMANIST’S APPRAISALS

Deviances rooted on the misogynic behaviours against female’s group which somehow frame them as unhumanlike is dehumanizing the community. The phenomenon is still on and needs to be tackled. In that vein, the current research work comes out and aims at pinpointing the socio-economic and political injustice women are subjected to in their community and their undeniable values in the community. The womanism approach is used and helps to discover that women are continuously stigmatized and excluded in their communities based on the traditional and cultural barriers. The work also demonstrates that only a co-participation of both women and men can resolve the development issue the planet targets.
