In this study, in today's world where borders are almost exclusively on the map, before examining the concept on feminism, how positive or negative approaches of the concept of globalization takes place in the literature was examined. After examining the concept of globalization, the study examined the second and third parameters of feminism, and laid the groundwork for the recent feminist movements which has come to this day. In our thesis, which focuses on the concept of global feminism, the theoretical frameworks of the concepts of intersectionality and cross politics in America and Europe, that facilities our concept, were examined. Even though there are several researches in the field of women studies in Turkey, after the literature review it was determined that, the concepts of intersectionality, cross politics, race-class-gender were not emphasized enough. The studies of women such as bell hooks, Patricia Hill Collins, Kimberle Crenshaw and Sara Ahmed, and their contribution to the development of feminist theory, were examined. In the last part; the implications of global feminism in Turkey Media were evaluated. By examining the reflections of the concepts of intersectionality and transversal politics, which are the basic concepts of global feminism, how the concepts are included in the news content is discussed in the focus of the global activist movement #MeToo.
