Abstract. The article focuses on the history and characteristics of ecofeminism. Ecofeminism emerged and developed as a movement against the patriarchal system, which was seen as the cause of both gender inequality and the unjust exploitation of the environment. The original ecofeminist vision of the 1970s, which linked women to nature through the relationship between structures of domination over them, and the subsequent development of the movement are examined. A historical overview of activist manifestations within ecofeminism is provided. Ecofeminist critiques are also analysed. The penetration of ecofeminist ideas into everyday practices and lifestyles will be examined.
Keywords: feminism, ecofeminism, ecology, domination, history of feminism
