Patriarchy
A [[social ]] [[system ]] characterized by [[male ]] domination and [[female ]] subordination. (Abramovitz, Mimi. Regulating the Lives of [[Women]], 1989, p. 25.)
We define patriarchy as a set of social relations which has a [[material ]] base and in which there are hierarchical relations between men and [[solidarity ]] among [[them ]] which enable them in turn to dominate women. The material base of patriarchy is men's [[control ]] over women's labor [[power]]. (Hartman, Heidi, "The Unhappy [[Marriage ]] of [[Marxism ]] and [[Feminism]]", from
The Second Wave edited by Linda Nicholson, 1997, p. 103.)
Kate Millet's definition of patriarchy: "our [[society]]...is a patriarchy. The fact is evident at once if one recalls that the military, industry, [[technology]], universities, [[science]], [[political ]]
offices, finances---in short, every avenue of power within the society, including the
coercive force of the police, is entirely in male hands." (Hartman, Heidi, "The Unhappy
1997, p. 101.)
“male control of the [[public ]] and private worlds constitutes patriarchy...” [Tong, Rosemary.(1998). [[Feminist ]] [[Theory]]: A Comprehensive Introduction, p.49.]
“Patriarchal [[ideology]], according to [Kate] Millet, exaggerates [[biological ]] [[difference ]] between menand women, making sure that men always have the dominant, or [[masculine]], roles and womenalways have the subordinate, or [[feminine ]] ones. This ideology is so powerful that men are usuallyable to secure the [[apparent ]] consent of the very women they oppress. They do this throughinstitutions such as the academy, the [[church]], and the [[family]]...” [Tong, Rosemary (1998).
Feminist Theory: A Comprehensive Introduction, p.49.]
“Male supremacist ideology encourages women to believe we are valueless and obtain [[value ]] only
by relating to or bonding with men” [hooks, bell. (1984). Feminist Theory: From Margin to
Center, p.43.]
“Though patriarchy is hierarchical and men of different classes, races, or ethnic groups have
different places in the patriarchy, they also are united in their shared [[relationship ]] of dominance
over their women... Patriarchy is not simply hierarchical organization, but hierarchy in which
[[particular ]] [[people ]] fill particular places.” [Heidi [[Hartmann ]] (1979) in Kramarae, Cheris &Treichler, Paula A., Amazons, Bluestockings, and Crones: A Feminist [[Dictionary]].]
