Feminisms in Latin America

About The Book

This Element analyzes the features of current feminist movements in Latin America and their responses to conservative reactions. For this it focuses on the pro-choice movement vis--vis the anti-abortion countermovement in Mexico and Brazil. It offers a relational approach embracing the dynamics within the feminist field and between feminism and the state to capture the movements'' potential effects. First the Element proposes the concept of nested feminist networks which comprises of three dimensions revealing the plurality of the movement across intersectional and sexual identity issues (horizontal) its relationship with the multifaceted state (vertical) and the intermediation of political parties and participatory institutions in this relationship (intermediary). Second it argues that nested networks allow feminists to enable policies and block actions from conservatives. In sum it explores how feminists leveraging their plurality and connection with the state can counter conservative attacks.
