The essay is created to question if it is possible to stablish a conceptual connection among the different political movements (feminism, indigenism, gays, lesbians) in Mexico. The answer is affirmative; the analytic perspective is based on the debate introduced by Foucault regarding the speeches created by the human sciences, with the pretention of a scientific neutrality, which distinguishes between the history of sciences and the genealogy of knowledge: the first one is composed around the structural axis of knowledge and the demand of the truth while the second one is related to knowledge itself, the discursive practices and the power relationships.

Keywords : epistem; feminism; indigenism; lesbian and gay movement; biology.
