Abstract: Through the analyzes of Abu-Lughod (2002), Beck (2021), Mahmood (2006), Sahlins (2007) and Zakaria (2021), this essay seeks to elucidate the similarities and differences between Western and Eastern feminism in terms of capitalist exploitation. Through a bibliographic review of the texts “Cosmologies of Capitalism: the transpacific sector of the world system”, “Do Muslim women really need salvation?” and “Feminist theory, agency and the liberatory subject: some reflection on Islamic revivalism in Egypt”, it is intended to revisit research carried out in the first two decades of the 21st century to expand reflections on intersectionality and gender oppression, especially after the attack on women.
