Paths to a Decolonial Feminism

Abstract

This study proposes an epistemic decentralization of the feminist movement to allow considering routes to a decolonial feminist practice. This requires taking a critical look at the historical project of capital, whose social categorizations make the experiences and demands of non-white women invisible. The studies on gender and coloniality by Rita L. Segato (2011) and María Lugones (2008) provide substantial support to an in-depth analysis of the colonial gender system, dismantling colonialist classifications and proposing specific alternatives for Latin American women.
