Presentation of Chiara Bottici’s book in conversation with Anna Curcio
with LIS interpreter
Feminism does not only have to do with women’s issues. It is rather a form of critique of the social order as a whole. Starting from this conception, Chiara Bottici’s book, published by Laterza, proposes a theory that calls itself anarcho-feminist, inspired by two main assertions: the first is that there is something specific in the oppression of women; the second is that, in order to fight it, we must detach ourselves from all other forms of oppression and from the anthropocentrism that characterizes them.
