ABSTRACT |
2018 is the Year of Women. The paper analyze transnational expansion of political contestation articulated between feminist and women mobilizations in Latin America and beyond borders between Latin America and Europe. We choose the informal articulations and networks of the #NiUnaMenos movement, the International Women Strike and the abortion movement to deal with -three interrelated elements: how women organize practices of solidarity against structural oppression denounced as femicide, the policies of austerity or wage inequality (García, 2017; Laudano et al., 2018); the new cycle of mobilization that combine campaigns and transnational coalitions with discursive repertoires of dissemination of the protest (Pates, Logroño and Medina, 2017; Baer, 2016, Bouchard et al., 2010); and, the power and identity politics that emerge from several combination of local struggles and regional borders. |
