Torsion feminisms

Abstract

In times of great feminist effervescence, the political claims of the movement are in-termingled with the dangerous reappropriations that neoliberalism makes of its struggle nuclei. The tensions that appear in this context are many and varied, some obvious and some invisible, but all of them contribute to the torsion of feminism. This article will address some of the tensions that arise from the intersection between feminism and neoliberalism: From advertising as a possible feminist tool, to speeches on entrepreneurship and employ-ment, through the design of public policies, and the commodification of female bodies. Some of the possible re-articulations and feminist political responses to this reality will be ad-dressed, showing the great complexity of the challenges that feminisms face today.
