The chapter examines the possible reconciliation between feminism, liberalism, and contractarianism, with the aim of contextualizing the theses advanced by Jean Hampton in her essay Feminist Contractarianism. The first part of the chapter analyzes the theoretical debate surrounding this issue, which developed primarily during the 1980s and 1990s, in order to highlight both the arguments in favor of and those against such a reconciliation. Following this initial overview, the second part of the chapter turns to a critical analysis of the principal theses put forward by Carole Pateman in The Sexual Contract. This focus is motivated, first, by the fact that Pateman’s work represents an essential point of reference for the feminist critique of contractarianism, and second, because Hampton explicitly challenges many of Pateman’s central claims. The chapter concludes by opening toward the possibility of overcoming the difficulties identified by Pateman and proposing an alternative hypothesis: that a contractarian feminism is, indeed, possible.
