«Fausse route» is Élisabeth Badinter's essay on the female condition, published by Distribooks Inc in paperback (192 pages, in French).
The author starts from the premise that traditional gender stereotypes, despite limiting women, offered them a certain security, and argues that their disappearance has generated confusion and rejection. Badinter warns that certain current discourses, presented as defending women, seek to restore boundaries and defined roles, which in reality hinders progress toward equality, deteriorates relations between the sexes, and leads to separatism. For the author, that temptation of a new moral order is a false path that should be avoided so as not to lose the advances achieved.
The essay is framed within the debate on gender equality and was originally published in 2003. This French-language edition, 192 pages, belongs to Le Livre de Poche's paperback catalogue.
Aimed at those interested in feminism, philosophy, and the sociological analysis of gender roles and their recent transformations.
Élisabeth Badinter is a French philosopher, author and historian.
