Feminist transhumances and political translocation: the developments of a feminism that claims radicality and otherness

Abstract

This article deals with a stream of Spanish feminism whose origins and developments are linked to the ups and downs of a Spanish revolutionary leftist party, the Communist Movement, and the network organizations which followed it. It’s a singular feminism which combines persistent praxis with powerful thinking, as powerful as the women who have led it over forty years; a feminism that combines also the tasks of disseminating its actions and thoughts, together with a resolute action within the Spanish feminist movement. From this perspective, the research focuses on four consecutive aspects followed by some brief conclusions: i) the developments until the 1990’s, a period in which this feminism evolves in accordance to revolutionary political militancy; ii) the essential features of its current ideology; iii) the structures and processes from which it is generated and disseminated; iv) the emphases found in their ways of being and their forms of presenting themselves and the synergies it shares with the broader organizations to which it belongs.
