Okin has been a distinguished political philosopher and a feminist. She is especially known for having defended a liberal conception of feminism, based on full equality between men and women. A liberal call for feminism had been politically maintained by John Stuart Mill, whose famous discourse to the House of Commons for female suffrage (1867) is sometimes indicated as the birthday of liberal feminism and explicitly theorized on his book The Subjection of Women, a fundamental book for Okin’ feminism. For all her life, in an everlasting debate with her critics, Okin defended her position both feminist and liberal, coming to develop a personal conception of liberalism. This presentation aims to reconstruct such a line of thinking
