How Could Gender Justice Be Possible

Philosophers and thinkers focus on the social justice. Especially the gender justice, as one of the important dimension of social justice, has been universally concerned from the mid-19th century. Nancy Fraser, as a representative of the third generation of Frankfurt School and an important representative of neo-Marxist Feminism, who gradually establish and perfect the Social Justice Theory which regard equal participation as its standard and content three dimension of redistribution, recognition and representation, in a realistic reflection and theoretical discussion of gender justice. Her theory become a unique landscape of gender studies and justice in the end of 20thcentury and the beginning 21st century.Fraser focus both on theory and practice, which aroused her intimate concern about the marginalized groups, as women, minorities, and other disadvantaged groups, suffering the competition in the globalization. She is also inspired by the traditional Marxist critique of contemporary feminism of equality and difference of the argument. She gradually forms her own comprehensive theory of social justice and gender justice concept also by Axel Honneth’s argument. In the course of discussion on gender equity and gender injustice, Fraser regard gender as a "bivalent" subject, and tries to promote universal caregiver model to achieve gender equity. Mean while, at the standard level, Fraser discusses the shortcomings and limitations of the theory of distributive justice and acknowledges justice. She establishes the three-dimensional concept of justice on the basis of equal participation, including redistribution, recognition and political representation, in the course of interpretation and reconstruction of the economic injustice between genders, cultural and political injustice. Besides Fraser also tries to establish cross-border post-Westphalian framework to digest the gender injustice which brought by globalization in the international market economy.Fraser’s discussions of gender justice reflect the latest research of Western theory of justice, but there are some shortcomings and deficiencies. What we can do is to draw reasonable and valuable theoretical resources to better provide for the construction of a harmonious society.
