One of the greatest feminine works of the modern era is The Universal Declaration of Human Rights created in 1948 by the U.N.s Commission on Human Rights chaired by Eleanor Roosevelt.
It is a feminine text because it’s ideals completely discard hierarchical and masculine-centric structures in arguing for the freedom and rights of all people. The shift from a domination system of power to a dignity system of power, along with themes of caregiving, interdependence, protection of the vulnerable, and shared humanity make this a feminine statement.
It is likely the only feminine document of this political magnitude to ever be written.
