Summary: | In Latin America, the covid-19 pandemic has deepened inequalities and perceptions of the socio-ecological crisis produced by the extractivist model that has dominated the region’s economies for the last few decades. In Argentina, resistance to this model is led by indigenous peasant farmers organised in the face of land grabbing processes. We address the role of feminisms within these territorial proposals during the pandemic, analyzing the case of women in the National Indigenous Peasant Movement (MNCI). Using an ethnographic approach with grassroots activists and qualitative analysis of public statements, we reflect on their positioning as spokespersons for critical alternatives to neoliberalism, through strategic alliances with broad sectors of the Global South. |
