Sobre IBD

Here Welch argues that feminist concerns relating to liberal models of individual freedom cannot be addressed without a theory of social freedom. This framework bridges the gap between liberal theorists and feminist theorists on the question of individual freedom by proposing a properly ’social’ social contract. Welch offers a liberatory conception of individual freedom that uniquely responds to the problems of oppression.
