Modern Patriarchy
[ send me this paper ]
An 11 page paper. Patriarchy progressively has moved from the realms of anthropological and sociological 'quirk' to that of full-blown conspiracy, according to some modern authors. What these extreme feminist authors have failed to consider, however, is that patriarchy as a cultural norm seems perfectly natural in the cultures in which it is practiced, and that it is only those of other parts of the world who have any complaints. Even though patriarchy is ingrained in many cultures of the world, some of those cultures are facing the necessity of reassessing their positions, forced not by any commonweal thinking, but by physical realities. Somalia is used as an example. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
