Structure-cognitive model analyzis of a struggle for recognition : the emergence of a fourth wave of feminism in France

Abstract

This thesis aims to demonstrate the emergence of a fourth wave of feminism in France, beginning in the early 2010s. A wave is here defined as a cycle of feminist protest that can be attested by the convergence of three interdependent and empirically testable criteria. The first criterion requires a noticeable growth in media interest for the women’s cause over a given period. From a qualitative research point of view, this media interest should be met with an adoption of frames favorable to gender equality. The second criterion implies to observe a change in the ideas and / or practices of feminist movements. These changes are the sign of a sucessful adaptation of the movements to social and technical evolutions, proving that they have managed to create a discourse which is audible in a given environment – of what the existence of the first criterion attests. Finally, the third criterion is about generational renewal : its main interest is to historicize the analysis by confronting the emergence of a protest cycle to the evolution of the mobilizing discourse and of the conditions leading individuals to protest.
