indigenous peoples are marginalised and dispossessed within the wilderness
narrative
Introduction
Ecofeminism remind me a newly introduced to word in the vocabulary these days but
it is always been dedicated in describing the efforts that women put into their livelihoods to
make the community safe. These efforts are much more intensified these days since there has
been extreme expand and contract in the corporate globalisation that does not by utilising any
chances they get at exploiting the communal life of people (Shiva and Mies 2014). The
following reported that focus on the concept of Ecofeminism and how it embrace the forms
of different emplacement of settlers narrative for replicating the appropriate mechanism by
which people have been marginalizing and depositing within the wilderness narrative.
1. Reductionism and Regeneration: A Crisis in Science
In this portion the entire critique of the scientific systems have been put forward since it
has been found that of all the ways by which science has been put forward does not imply
reconceptualising of the reality, which in the real world dominates both nature and women.
Reality has implied women more as a machine rather than a living organism.
2. Feminist Research: Science, Violence and Responsibility
Feminist research is characterized with the help of the dual dimension it holds which
is somewhat opposed by the traditional research procedures. As part of Ecofeminism,

feminist research has been characterized both for informing the real-world about the struggles
that women go through every day and how in multiple forms they have been oppressed but
the entire process is done through proper scientific research in measuring the violence against
the responsibilities of a human being.
3. The Myth of Catching-up Development
This portion states how history has presented of form of myth that inform is that men,
especially the white men in the urban areas are in the industrial countries has already access
the epitome of evolution which is not the truth. These historical myths nullify the
contribution of other people living within the society, especially the women.
4. The Impoverishment of the Environment: Women and Children Last
The development that the entire world is boasting about clearly specifies that the
model of progress that has been standardized by the Western economy does not focus on the
degradation of environment. It can only be seen that there is no balance within the economy
since the richer are becoming richer and poor people are becoming much poorer.
5. Who Made Nature Our Enemy?
The life of women has not changed much with environmental calamities come what
may. Ecofeminism in this context has been studied as any environmental ups and downs have
not affected the way that women have been living since time immemorial (Shiva and Mies
2014).
