Popis: This paper reflects on the question of whether it still makes sense to speak of two feminisms: feminism of equality and feminism of difference. The debate within these two feminist interpretations during the seventies and eighties is no longer as relevant, but I argue here that the fruits of that debate are what today enable us to move towards new types of feminism that can achieve societies’ transformation towards a more feminist world. And this implies, as it always has done, two things: a world with more equality and more freedom. These two aspects are part of the valuable legacy we have inherited from that feminist debate. As a feminist of today, what I defend is that in no circumstances should one be sacrificed for the other.
