LAMAS, Marta. From 1968 to Date: Women’s Political Mobilization. Rev. mex. cienc. polít. soc [online]. 2018, vol.63, n.234, pp.265-285. ISSN 0185-1918.  https://doi.org/10.22201/fcpys.2448492xe.2018.234.65427.

This article explores the coincidences and differences between the mobilization of women in the 1968 student movement and activism by today young feminists. It examines the early works on the movement, especially those written by the leaders, and finds a lack of discussion regarding women’s participation. Lamas recovers the works of two female authors who were concerned by this absence, and conducted some researches on women’s mobilization, finding a variety of actions, including some barely known feminist stances. The article reveals as well the reassessment made by some authors later on, as they acknowledged the role of women. Finally, the author finds a certain correlation between some of the demands of today’s young feminists vis-à-vis a violent social context and those of the female activists during the 1968 movement.
