    Feminism originated in the 18th century and has developed in three waves focused on freedom, equality, and diversity of thought. It examines unequal gender relations and patriarchal social structures that view women as subordinate to men. Feminist theory analyzes how women are objectified and excluded from positions of power in society, politics, and international relations. Feminism brings a critical perspective to international affairs by highlighting the role of women in areas often dominated by men like conflict, diplomacy, and national security.
