- Title
Política de lo materno de dirigentes barriales en el espacio público.
- Authors
LUJÁN VERÓN, DAVID; PÉREZ CONTRERAS, ANÍBAL
- Abstract
This article analyzes a set of stories from neighborhood leaders, collected from two completed doctoral investigations, with the aim of revealing different ways in which women invoke roles traditionally associated with the feminine --protection, care, motherhood-- to legitimize themselves in the public space and participate in local politics. It will be argued that the women observed participate in the configuration of a "maternal politics" that, despite reinforcing traditional stereotypes about the role of women, constitutes a reservoir of experiences, learning and practices that can be read in the key of politicization and construction of citizenship.
