Musical practices in the interstices between arts, activism and militancy at abortion vigils in 20182024-01-01T19:12:45+00:00Camila Milláncamillangranval@gmail.comIn 2018, in different cities of Argentina a series of debates, vigils and mobilizations unfolded around the discussion of the project of Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy that condensed and enhanced the circulation of feminist narratives in the mass media, institutions, domestic spaces and in the streets. This paper analyzes the musical practices that took place during these massive mobilizations based on the hypothesis that the instances of activism-militancy and the scenes were constituted as spaces that mutually contaminated each other. In the context of the collectivization of political concerns by women and sexual dissidence musicians, enabling the question of the tensions between the artistic, the activist and the militant allows us to situate the public space as the center of political disputes of bodies and territories, taking into account its role in the symbolic shaping of narratives and meanings.2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73459Cyberfeminist currents and feminist digital transition in Latin America and the Caribbean: towards a more equitable digital future2024-01-01T22:35:21+00:00Constanza González-Vélizcontacto@constanzagonzalezveliz.comSusana de Andrés del Camposusana.andres@uva.esCyberfeminism in Latin America and the Caribbean is a constantly evolving practice that uses the Internet to challenge gender inequalities and promote equity. This study analyzes the role of the Internet in online feminist practice, focusing on cyberrelationships and their importance in the digital environment. Through a meta-study, it examines cyberfeminist perspectives over time, highlighting the importance of identities, solidarity, and resistance in the digital space. It explores currents of cyberactivism, hackfeminism, technofeminism, and data feminism, emphasizing their convergence to drive gender equality. Challenges, examples, and their impact are presented. It addresses gender digital divides, participation in STEM areas, and digital violence, emphasizing the importance of situated knowledge. Additionally, it examines the relationship between technology and gender from feminist perspectives and highlights the convergence of digital commons and cyberfeminism for a fair digital transition.2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73461The rethoric of suffering in the thematization of the debate for the legalization of the voluntary interruption of pregnancy in argentinean magazine television2024-01-01T23:13:58+00:00Guadalupe Allione Ribaallioneguada@gmail.comPaloma Rubinpalomarubin12@gmail.comIn this article, we propose to analyze the thematization of the debate around the legalization of abortion in Argentine television programs from the magazine genre (2018-2020). We carried out a reconstruction of the history of argentine feminist activism, its impact on the public space and the increase of its presence in the media’s agenda, within the sociological discourse analysis framework. Analyzing specific broadcasts of Intratables and La noche de Mirtha, we found a contrasting treatment in the research time period. We observed that the rhetoric of suffering was constituted as a transversal axis of the thematization of the abortion, producing the figure of the victim woman. Likewise, we analyzed the accumulation of moral capital by certain actors, which legitimizes their social positioning and constitutes them as moral guardians of abortion experiences. 2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73462Grief and resistance against gender-based violence.

It seeks, on the one hand, to contribute to the knowledge about the itineraries, disputes and forms of occupation of public space in the city, scarcely collected and studied despite the fact that the Province has a visibility of preponderant national scope from the year 2017 with the murder of Micaela García (fact that will give rise to the National Law known as "Ley Micaela"). On the other hand, we inquire into the specificity taken by those embodied and expressive forms that gather as bodies together in the streets and that reconfigure some senses of political protest and public space in the city.2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73463Abortion in the public scene: activisms, feminisms and artistic creations in the province of Tucumán (Argentina)2024-01-01T23:54:06+00:00María Milagros Argañarazmilagros.arganaraz@hotmail.comThe article we present here seeks to recover, describe and analyze two artistic expressions around abortion, made by feminist activists from the province of Tucumán (Argentina) in 2017. We are referring to the book Manchón y cuenta nueva. Antología de relatos sobre abortos (2017) and the street intervention of the virgin who aborts, carried out by the feminist group Socorro Rosa Tucumán. Both were part of the claims and demonstrations of feminist activists to the Argentine State for the legalization of abortion. To analyze these artistic expressions, we appeal to journalistic sources, information available on social networks and an in-depth interview conducted with one of the protagonists of the street intervention who was also one of the authors of the aforementioned book. From the analysis carried out, it is possible to consider that the artistic productions speak of their time and reflect, through aesthetic and metaphorical resources, some aspects of the surrounding social climate.2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73464Mexican women facing care work: inequalities in activities and ways of life2024-01-02T00:14:26+00:00Vanessa Arvizu Reynagavanearvizu01@gmail.comPedro Octavio Arce Casaspedro.arce@udgvirtual.udg.mxIn this article we set out to find out what factors diversify care work, considering that these activities are carried out in scenarios of inequality where variables such as socioeconomic level and social position intervene. This research offers an exploratory quantitative analysis based on the National Time Use Survey (ENUT) conducted in 2019. The main finding shows that in 21st century Mexico, even when women have a higher level of education, have paid work, or are heads of household, this is not enough to alleviate the burden of care work that they bear compared to men, in addition to which there are scenarios in which inequalities among women exacerbate the precarious condition in which this work is performed.2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73465A mass feminism: women and diversities' mobilization in the Green Tide cycle (Argentina, 2015-2020)2024-01-02T00:42:43+00:00Ana Nataluccianatalucci@gmail.comFlorencia Messoreflormessore@gmail.comIn Argentina, in 2015 from the concentration of "Ni una Menos" a cycle of feminist mobilization was activated, with the creation of new organizations, demands, agendas and rights, called the "Green Tide". The objective of this paper is to reconstruct this new cycle, considering the organizations, the demands and agendas, and the repertoires that allowed the massification of participation. The argument that we will support is that this cycle was opened by external and internal conditions to the movement. This article shows the results of an investigation carried out since 2016 to understand the changes in social mobilization in contemporary Argentina during the crisis of the left turn and the conservative restoration since the end of 2015. In methodological terms we follow a mixed method that combines techniques, disciplinary perspectives and analytical perspectives in an integrated approach to the study of social phenomena and processes.2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73466Trajectories and mishaps to care work in nursing: gender questions2024-01-02T01:17:57+00:00Cristiane Batista Andradecristianeandrade@fiocruz.brTatiana Giovanelli Vedovatotatigiovedovato@gmail.comInês Monteiroinesmon@unicamp.brObjective: To analyze the training and work trajectories of nursing technicians from a gender perspective, especially the sexual division of labor (STD). Methodology: Qualitative research in a large Brazilian city, with the use of oral history to understand work and training paths, reasons and choices for entering the profession. Interviews were conducted with eleven nursing technicians (nine women and two men). Results: Entry into the profession is motivated by obtaining a job; improvement in salary conditions for men and women; desire to care related to “vocation” and family influence. Some women have had interruptions due to reproductive work; the discontinuities in the trajectories were not experienced by men and by young women without children. Conclusions: The STD approach allowed us to understand the different pathways for care work between genders, the reasons for career and work interruptions2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73467Debate on the Political Subject of Feminism: Stances and Experiences of Digital Aggression of Feminist Women2024-01-02T01:40:37+00:00María Fernanda López Olivaresoelefem@gmail.comNorma Patricia Maldonado Reynosonmaldonador@ipn.mxNowadays, there is a specific dilemma within the debate around the political subject of feminism, arising from new ways of understanding sex and gender constructions, this is whether feminism should involve transgenderism or not. It leads to intra-feminist tension in digital social networks, occasionally involving aggression. This article addresses this problem and aims to analyze the digital aggression experienced by feminist women when expressing their position on which they consider should be the subject of feminism. Employing a qualitative methodological approach, the experiences of 48 women were gathered through a digital questionnaire and analyzed using Atlas.ti software. Among the results, digital aggression is identified at heart of the antagonism between two major feminist positions, which this article proposes to designate: «woman-centered» and «trans-inclusive». These findings contribute to the visibility of digital aggression within feminism, an arena that, despite its fight against gender discrimination paradoxically may be leading to argumentative silencing and to the absence of constructive dialogue among its participants.2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73470Key Elements in Latin American Economics Curricula2024-01-02T02:42:19+00:00Isabel Cristina Rivera Lozadairivera@unicauca.edu.coPaula Andrea Meneses Medinapameneses@unicauca.edu.coThis research proposes five key elements in the curriculum of economics programmes: situated knowledge, intersectionality, decolonial feminism, critical thinking and gender in order to remedy the historical exclusions that racialized, poor and colonialized women suffer in the economic sphere in the territories of the global south, specifically in Latin America. Starting from the thinking of some authors such as bell hooks, Donna Haraway, María Lugones and Yuderkys Espinosa, with the perspective of decolonial feminism as a backdrop and the gender approach in the curriculum, the problematizing axes propose issues such as labour segregation, the feminization of poverty, wage and income inequality, the care economy, the fetishization and commodification of women, which will be taken into account in the teaching of economic in contexts of the peripheries of the American continent.2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73471“I learned all those things more on the street” Intersectional Reflections on the Construction of Neighborhood Masculinity Masculinities, social vulnerability and consumption of psychoactive substances2024-01-02T03:07:36+00:00Jonny Altamirano Godoyjonny.altamirano@gmail.comAugusto Obando Cidaugusto.obando@gmail.comStudies on masculinities allow to account for the complex processes and practices that configure being a man in a given place and time, allowing the development of multiple approaches, which in the present study are based on intersectionality in masculinities, observing oppressions and privileges. This research aims to: Unveil the relationship between the social construction of certain configurations of masculinity and its complex relationship with the problematic consumption of psychoactive substances, from a phenomenological perspective from the voices and experiences of young men from Talcahuano. The present research is based on a qualitative approach to the phenomenon, with a phenomenological approach, using the ethnographic interview technique and with a data analysis from the grounded theory. Concluding that neighborhood masculinity is a complex and contradictory identity, which exercises power by placing itself in a privileged way in the neighborhood context and that for its own construction it needs the consumption of psychoactive substances.2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73472Contributions to the fragmentation of the reason/emotion binomial: (Co)production of an emotionally fel tknowledge2024-01-02T03:23:15+00:00Nicole Herrera-Farfannicole.herrera@uchile.clThis article aims to high light the epistemic value of emotions as data of emotionally felt knowledge in research processes, considering the feminist critique of the pyramidal and power relationship between subject and researcher. Duplicating the purposes to, on the one hand, contribute from the methodological side of qualitative research and, on the other hand, through the form of writing that presents the results. An experience is then presented that combines narrative production with situated and experiential autoethnographic elements in order to expose the (Co)producing that made it posible to obtain knowledge through consensual creation. Emphasising the importance of narrative in orderto explore and understand how the dynamics of male domination experienced in a couple's relationship with a person deprived of liberty are imprinted in a woman's story. The methodological and creative approach is then highlighted as a central part of the theoretical discussion in this article. 2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73473Reflections about the Role of Rural Colombian Women in the Work2024-01-02T03:35:58+00:00Paula Andrea Meneses Medinapameneses@unicauca.edu.coThis article aims to reflect on the role of rural Colombian women in labor, based on gender relations perceived in the activities carried out by women and men in a village in the Cauca Department. It also relies on theoretical-conceptual reflections related to popular education, gender, gender stereotypes, the sexual division of labor, and care work from the perspective of intersectionality. The exercise concludes with three reflections aimed at proposing public policies. Firstly, there is a need to incorporate intersectional analysis in Colombian rural contexts. Secondly, the importance of proposing a popular education that considers aspects such as situated knowledge and includes a gender perspective. Lastly, the presence of gender stereotypes leads rural women to concentrate on care work.2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73474Perceptions and reflections on gender, race and class inequalities in the workplace of the Environment and Health Axis2024-01-02T04:25:00+00:00Tânia Gracieli Vega Incertitaniag_vega@yahoo.com.brLindamir Salete Casagrandelindasc2002@gmail.comThis article aims to present and reflect on expressions of gender, race and class inequalities experienced by technicians who graduated from the courses of the environment and health axis of the Federal Institute of Paraná, in their workspace. As the research was carried out during the Covid 19 Pandemic period, the discussion about the implications of this context is also part of this article. To this end, we will analyze the corpus resulting from 162 online questionnaires and 20 semi-structured interviews carried out with graduates of subsequent technical courses in: nursing, massage therapy, dental prosthesis, radiology and oral health trained at the Federal Institute of Paraná, Campus Curitiba and Campus Londrina, in the period between 2015 and 2019. As a result, we point out that these professionals experience gender, race and class inequalities in their work spaces, which are often ratified by common sense, are naturalized in everyday life and are not always perceived as inequalities.2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73475Gender inequality.

It applies an expanded index that incorporate four complementary empowerment and labor indicators to the field of gender studies. This approach reveals Mexico’s main inequalities between women and men, and enables a comparison with the results of the original GII.The findings show that, in general, the extended model records greater inequality on average (11%). The deepened gender inequality gap requires the implementation of public policies to advance towards a greater equality in human development.2023-12-30T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Punto Génerohttps://rmdd.uchile.cl/index.php/RPG/article/view/73469Reseña: Lamas, M.
