Decolonizing feminisms: towards an alternative feminism

Abstract

The dynamics and evolution of the feminist movement and the diversity of approaches that have proliferated throughout its history, has contributed to the emergence of “other” ways of conceiving it: intercultural feminism, critical feminism and decolonial feminism. In this article we address and problematize the main trends of feminism in the 21st century. Through a deconstructive-reconfigurative process we propose the notion of Alterative Feminism as an alternative to the narrow and limiting views of contemporary feminism and as an “other” way of feeling, knowing, thinking, learning, doing and living.
