In this article, the political philosopher Susan Moller Okin discusses the dichotomy
public-private from a gendered perspective. Overlooking gender – especially as it assumes the
form of overlooking the political reality of the family and gender ‘neutral’ language – has become,
in many past and present authors, a reinforcement of that dichotomy, silencing about its patriarchal

not be interpreted isolatedly, what demands a deep revision of the base of most liberal political
theory. The author faces this demand, discussing important problems such as the value of privacy |
