Outlines of a Latin American feminism

Abstract

Does a Latin America feminism exist? We believe it does and that it has its own roots and profile which derives from different theoretical and philosophical lines of the most important feminist achievements. We also believe that the so-called peripheral situation of the continent allows to situate and locate different readings, draw conceptual maps and accept that feminism's own challenges. This paper intends to map out some of challenges and trajectories. Copoyright © 2007 by Revista Estudos Feministas.
