Abstract :This study moves from a historical perspective; the criticism and emergence of feminist economics, and the story of free and low-wage working women, termed as `other economics,` is pushed into an edge in capitalism, and the production and reproduction of the material conditions of life are shaped in the context of more exploitative-production-dominance relations. The first women`s movement that emerged in the 1400s based on different schools turned day by day into multi-voice feminist schools. Feminist economists both in classical and neoclassical theories of economics; criticize the disappearance of women. Although Marx and Keynes criticized capitalism hard, they were male-centered in crisis models. Thus, in Marks and Keynes thought models, the differences between economics and `other economics` relations cannot be adequately analyzed.Keywords : Marks, Keynes, Feminist Economics, Neoclassical, Other Economics
