Resumen

GARGALLO, Francesca. Feminismo Latinoamericano. Revista Venezolana de Estudios de la Mujer [online]. 2007, vol.12, n.28, pp.17-34. ISSN 1316-3701.

Women recognise themselves through their history, but the hardest obstacle for building such history of Latin America is to ignore the death of ninety per cent or aboriginal populations at the outset of the Westernization of their history. Latin American feminist theory doesn't start out from Indian's knowledge,  and only a few half-breed women are recognized along this history, rather perceiving themselves as Westerns than Indians, white and no coloured people, generically oppressed rather than a member pertaining to a culture of resistance. The way to decolonization made by the theory ¡tself and promoted by autonomous feminist groups ¡s particularly important for Latín American feminist thinking because ¡t points out to the cross, not only discursivo, about those very varied elements of economy, body, politics, liberation, and difference. Thus, the Indian-uprooted feminism, the lesbian feminism and feminism of popular struggles is opening up a new voice to the Latin American feminism

Palabras clave : Latin American feminism; Feminism of difference; Aboriginal feminism; Lesbian feminism.
