Simone de Beauvoir and a Period of Transition
Prospects, v51 n1-3 p185-191 Oct 2021
This article discusses the global intensification of gender inequality during the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. It reflects on the meaning of being a woman in the recent time of transition and the phenomenon of gender discrimination, which has been a lived experience of women worldwide. The article compares the COVID-19 situation seen through a gender lens with the previous period of transition described by Simone de Beauvoir seventy years ago. It argues that the post-pandemic world should be created from the feminist perspective that calls for social and educational change.
