Classical liberal feminism and second wave feminism represent two distinct yet interconnected phases in the history of feminist thought.

Understanding the two approaches allows us to grasp the evolution of feminist thinking and its implications for development policies, practices, and the broader pursuit of gender justice. Classical liberal feminism originates in the Enlightenment period, where liberal thinkers emphasized rationality, autonomy, and individual rights as the foundation of a just society. Early feminists such as Mary Wollstonecraft and John Stuart Mill argued that women, being rational beings, deserved the same legal and political rights as men. The central premise of classical liberal feminism is that women’s subordination is primarily the result of legal and institutional barriers that deny them equal opportunities in education, employment, and participation in public life.
