dc.description.abstractThis thesis examines the diverse perspectives within feminism, focusing on the challenges faced by women globally and the varying solutions proposed based on socio-political contexts. It analyzes two plays, "Cloud 9" by Caryl Churchill and "A Raisin in the Sun" by Lorraine Hansberry, to highlight the differing approaches to feminism between Western and non-Western societies. The study emphasizes the importance of considering the voices of unprivileged women, including those from non-Western and non-white backgrounds, to avoid a partial understanding of women's issues. Through a detailed examination of the plays' female characters and their aspirations, the thesis reveals the complexities of women's problems and the limitations of one-size-fits-all solutions. It advocates for context-based approaches that acknowledge cultural and societal nuances. The research aligns with the perspectives of black feminism and intersectional feminism, emphasizing the necessity of ethnically specific or multicultural forms of feminism. By highlighting these diverse perspectives, the thesis contributes to the ongoing discussion about objectivity within feminism, as explored by scholars like Donna Haraway and Sandra Harding. Ultimately, the study argues for continued collaborative efforts in addressing women's issues, emphasizing the need for solutions that are sensitive to the specific contexts and challenges faced by women globally.
