Paper #4: Globalization and Feminism

What created feminism? How have women from different countries and cultures approached the problems of women differently? Are women as a whole oppressed, and if so, what exactly are the sources of women’s oppression? What is the relationship between religion and women’s rights? Is there such a thing as “global feminism”? What is the future of feminism? Use the textbook, and the documents at the end of Chapter 23 to examine the origins of feminism, its goals, challenges, and future. Please note that much of this material is to be found throughout the textbook, not just in Chapter 23.

You must cite your sources, and list them at the end of your paper as a List of References. Please do not “borrow” material from the web without providing proper citations and enclosing direct quotations in quotation marks. Otherwise, it will be considered plagiarism, and the penalties will be severe.

Typed, double-spaced, 12-point type, 600-800 words. Use MLA formatting.

For help with MLA formatting, consult the Purdue Owl (on-line writing lab).

Please e-mail as an attachment to the instructor at crjackson81@gmail.com before midnight on the date due. Note: before sending the assignment, you must rename the file in the following format: LastnameFirstname-papernumber. Example: JacksonChristopher-paper1. If the file is not properly named, it will not be accepted. If the file cannot be opened with MS-Word, it will not be accepted. Please put the course number and the file name in the subject line of the e-mail. For example: Subject: History 3C JacksonChristopher-paper1. (That allows me to better keep track of the several hundred papers that I receive during the quarter.)
