Abstract

Economic theories have always been prone to criticisms because of profusion of opinions among economists and theorists. Regardless of this, no economic theory remains compatible with the real world without being in unison with feminism. The harmonized unanimity between feminist perspectives towards an economy and the theories which explain functioning of economies is inevitable. The scope of this paper is to understand the significance of this unanimity between the economic theories and feminism and how the male chauvinist society altered the core concept of oikonomia making economics a male-dominated discipline. Certain criticisms of post- Keynesian economic theories are also considered invalid once the concept of feminist economics is combined with the existing theories.
