This pamphlet looks at the introduction of patriarchy as an analytical category in understanding women's subordination- at how it is constituted; at its origin; an dat how it has evolved historically in different parts of the world. It locates women's struggles in a context where the patriarchal control of major social and political institutions makes for special forms of discrimination against women.
