Through the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE), Europe is prepared to welcome members into a world order based on a conventional standard of human rights. Suppose the builders of the new order used a woman-centered, rather than a man-centered, standard of human rights as the litmus test for membership. Suppose that, instead of a Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe, nations formed a conference on Female Security and Male Cooperation in Europe (CFSMCE). Suppose that the European-led New World Order began with a cooperative effort by the feminist states to lead the patriarchal states toward a reclamation and reconstruction of their laws and practices to meet the feminist standard of human rights for women. This paper is based on just such suppositions. It applies a feminist standard of human rights for women to members of the CSCE (as of 1989) to identify the feminist states that could form the core of the feminist New World Order as well as those still in the grip of patriarchal ideologies. Then, to help the CFSMCE develop a plan to speed up reform in those nations recovering from patriarchal domination, the paper will suggest which characteristics appear to distinguish the feminist and emerging feminist states from the peripheral and patriarchal ones
