Resumen
GUERRERO-MC MANUS, Siobhan. Silencing Prejudices: Testimonial Injustice and Hermeneutic Death. Rev. interdiscip. estud. género Col. Méx. [online]. 2023, vol.9, e1026. Epub 25-Sep-2023. ISSN 2395-9185. https://doi.org/10.24201/reg.v9i1.1026.
This essay revisits the idea of epistemic injustice, a term coined by Miranda Fricker, and some of the subsequent developments it has enabled, in order to illustrate the epistemic aspects associated with various forms of exclusion and marginalization in which gender inequalities play an important role. It is argued that contemporary feminism can be characterized, at least in part, by a desire to tackle this type of injustice. However, as this text also shows, internal contradictions and prejudices remain, contributing to the continued hermeneutic death for transgender populations and individuals sex workers. In general, this essay exposes blind spots or biases persisting in contemporary feminism and that have even gained strength-specifically, the trans-exclusionary and abolitionist positions on sex work that currently promote narratives about these two sectors that further exacerbate the marginalization and exclusion of these two groups.
