Abstract

This work seeks to offer arguments for the integration of two seemingly unconnected and contrasted fields – evolutionary psychology and feminism. The first part presents basic ideas and starting points of evolutionary psychology, while the second part provides an overview of feminist theories and problems faced by feminism in theory and practice, not only in communicating with other theories, sciences and disciplines but also within its own differing standpoints. The third part questions arguments, models and motivation needed for successful integration.
