The current political environment is undergoing gradual improvements that significantly change the nature of the international system. One of these changes is the growing trend of feminist foreign policy (FFP), which promises to transform the traditional, military-oriented principles that were historically dominant in the international arena. Despite the fact that the world has been working with this concept since 2014, when Sweden adopted the principles of feminism in its decision-making process, there is still no consensus on what the FFP should be like. Using a detailed literature review and the subsequent synthesis of relevant facts, this review article aims to integrate the individual FFP principles into one unit, and to create a research framework that can be used at the empirical level. At the same time, the article discusses the weaknesses of already existing models and briefly evaluates the war in Ukraine through the feminist lens.
