Abstract

An exploration of the main theoretical contributions of the decolonial perspective and critical feminisms leads us to theoretical and epistemological discussions and proposals of Latin American and decolonial feminisms. The combination of these critical theories has allowed a change in the analytical perspectives implemented when researching the realities of women in Latin America, particularly the realities of indigenous, Afro-descendant, mestizao, mulatta and impoverished women. Furthermore, it has identified and questioned the proliferation of the discursive colonialism of hegemonic feminism, which hid the colonial history of the continent with its patriarchal, capitalist, Eurocentric and racist logics. This article proposes a bibliographical review that introduces fundamental concepts of Latin American and decolonial feminisms, such as gender coloniality. Furthermore, it presents some of the main contributions and discussions about gender organizations prior to colonization and the consequences of the implantation of modern/colonial patriarchy. In conclusion, this paper proposes several critical theoretical tools and categories useful for addressing research from a decolonial and Latin American feminist framework.
