Understanding Women Education as Catalyst for Empowerment Through the Lances of Feminist Jurisprudence

Abstract

Women's psychological, social, political, and economic development is greatly influenced by their level of education. Education is a crucial tool for marking a woman's existence and reflecting her individuality, in addition to being a way to attain economic independence. Numerous factors, including social, demographic, political, and economic ones, influence women's education. The low level of education among women can be attributed to these factors. Women's empowerment can be positively impacted by their education. The Indian Constitution gives the State the authority to implement affirmative action policies aimed at advancing strategies and tactics for women's empowerment.

Women's education significantly improves their quality of life. It is a significant step toward the empowerment of women. Therefore, the most crucial element in empowering women is education. A legal philosophy founded on the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes is known as feminist jurisprudence. Feminism is a contentious idea these days. The goal of feminist jurisprudence is to understand why women are in subordinate positions. This essay examines how education contributes to women's empowerment from a feminist legal perspective.

 It is remarkable how education for women improves their life. For women's empowerment, it is a significant milestone. Therefore, women's education is the most crucial component of their empowerment. The legal concept of feminist jurisprudence is predicated on the equality of the sexes in society, politics, and the economy. Nowadays, feminism is a contentious idea. The philosophy of feminist jurisprudence aims to understand the causes of women's subordination. This essay uses feminist jurisprudential perspectives to examine the role that education plays in women's emancipation.
