Feminist economists have sought to revolutionize economics discipline particularly by incorporating multidisciplinary methods, methodologies and philosophies into the field. As this article shortly summarizes, so much has been done. Feminist economists have dreamed big and created powerful foundation for desirable economics. There are clear achievements, yet the job is not done, dream is continuing. The continued leap for feminist economists is to bring together the accumulated literature and new knowledge while pursuing their solid feminist pedagogy in teaching and learning economics without wavering. Such a path will provide liberation for the oppression inside and outside the education system and keep social provisioning and well-being at the center of economic research and teaching. There are still massive obstacles on the path. However, these obstacles can be used as a motivation for building on the innovative path to continue revolutionizing the economics discipline.
