The topic of 'feminism in international relations' was investigated in this chapter, which was inspired by the following questions: 1. What is the nature/characteristic of feminist's international relations paradigm? 2. What's new in international feminist relations? 3. What role does feminism play in international relations research? 4. How can feminism be characterised scientifically in international relations? Dissatisfaction with orthodox international relations sparked feminism in international relations. They contributed to the understanding of gender and gender hierarchies, as well as the creation and implementation of inclusive policies. There are several points of view on feminism and international relations, but they all revolve on foreign policy and diplomacy, international political economy, war, security, and peace, and the international law dimension. Feminism in international relations emphasises the role of femininity in foreign policy formulation and implementation, women trafficking and drugs in international political economy, individual security rather than state security, women's participation in the peacemaking process, and gender and opportunity inclusion in international law. Classical feminism and neo-feminism are the two forms of feminism in international relations.
