Translated title of the contribution: A drifting feminism? On contemporary reactionary disputes of the feminist imaginary

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The political popularity of the far-right has been taking alarming global proportions. Its sedimentation around the world, albeit in variable ways, needs to be placed ambiguously in relation to feminist historical-constituted claims. Whereas, on the one hand, disdain for women, gays/lesbians and transgender, seems recalcitrant, as well as the discredit of certain feminist struggles, on the other hand, this tendency appears as an onset, existing paradoxically a renewed interest in women's issues and on the emancipatory impulse of feminist struggles. This article aims to undertake some starting reflections on this contradiction, supported by the experience of movements and party-formations (feminist and/or far-right) that seek to dispute the constitution of political subjectivities both feminist and reactionary terms. It is recognized the relevance of taking this debate within the intersection between feminism and Marxism, which is able to stimulate a theoretical formulation opposing capitalism, here understood as a contradictory totality.
