CABRAPAN DUARTE, Melisa. The Anti-extractivist Women’s Movement: Feminisms and Multisituated Knowledge in Convergence. Debate fem. [online]. 2022, vol.64, pp.56-79.  Epub 20-Mayo-2023. ISSN 2594-066X.  https://doi.org/10.22201/cieg.2594066xe.2022.64.2287.

This article explores the emergence of an anti-extractivist women’s movement in Latin America. To this end, it reviews and theoretically analyzes the convergence of i. social mobilization for environmental demands and against the extractivism of nature, with a focus on the incorporation of gender and feminist political ecology; ii. the vindication and revaluation of territorialized experiences, both for the defense of territories and bodies and for the production of situated knowledge by community feminism in connection with other feminisms; and iii. a diverse women’s movement that incorporates the anti-extractivist struggle from cities, questioning its rural origin and its main actors -indigenous, Afro-descendant and peasant women-, while resignifying it through the socio-environmental problems of the urban context. This article therefore proposes using a gender perspective to reflect on the resistance to the progress of neoliberal extractivism in Latin America.
