Description

The Contradictions of Love: Towards a feminist-realist ontology of sociosexuality provides a deep theoretical analysis of how women remain subordinated to men through sexual love in contemporary western societies. Part of the Routledge Critical Realism series, this work builds upon the foundational thesis of Anna G. Jonasdottir, which suggests that men often exploit the love power of women. Through the application of critical realism, dialectical critical realism, and the philosophy of metaReality, the author provides a new way to look at sociosexuality. This book moves beyond standard perspectives to offer a robust account of gender dynamics and power structures. It also includes a critique of current feminist theory, making it an essential read for those studying the intersection of sociology, philosophy, and gender studies. This text is designed for scholars and students looking for a sophisticated understanding of how social structures and personal relationships interact within a feminist framework.
