A Feminist Approach to Digital Constitutionalism

Abstract

Digital constitutionalism endeavours to adapt traditional constitutional principles to a rapidly evolving digital environment. However, the framework often adopts neutral perspectives on subjects and limited views of agency and equality, thereby neglecting intersecting gender, racial, and class dynamics that are replicated in the tech-ecosystem. Nifemi’s thesis will thus, challenge the systemic limitations inherent in prevailing digital constitutional paradigms by integrating epistemologies such as feminist constitutionalism, posthuman feminism, feminist technoscience, intersectionality, and Marxist feminism. The validity of the proposed feminist digital constitutional framework will then be tested through femtech case studies (female digital health technologies).
