[10 years of feminist intervention in Quebec: statement and perspectives]
Abstract:
The authors start off by reviewing the origins and principal characteristics of feminist therapy as it appeared in the United States at the end of the 1960s. Following this step are analyzed the conditions for the emergence of feminist intervention in Québec and its specificity, terms commonly used by Québec practicians when describing their work among women. Emphasis is placed on the analysis of feminist intervention in institutional environments due to its remarkable development over the last few years. The article concisely presents the two main theoretical approaches that inspire the intervention, namely the socio-behavioral approach and the awareness approach. Following a brief overview of feminist intervention in Québec, the authors raise questions about its future.
