Routines of Interaction between Latin American Feminists and the State

“…The relationship between feminism and the state is part of an exhaustive but not exhausted debate with contributions from the North (Htun and Weldon, 2010;Kantola, 2006;Lovenduski, 2005;Mazur, 2002) and the Global South (Alvarez, 1990;Guzmán, 2001;Sardenberg and Costa, 2010) and from different currents of feminism . More collaborative and more confrontational approaches have permeated assessments of the strategies of feminist movements vis-à-vis the state, and in Latin America these approaches have been in constant dispute (Matos and Paradis, 2013). Abandoning a binary and Manichaean view, Matos and Paradis (2014) have suggested a new feminist synthesis of the state that takes into account the complexity of the relations between society and the state, monitors the state's political translations of the demands of feminist movements, considers how different groups of women are affected by state actions, and assesses the efforts of institutional mechanisms for women seeking to depatriarchalize the state.…”

Adopting this framework, we can examine the repertoires of interaction between the feminist movement and the state in terms of the nature of the institutional mechanisms for the advancement of women, the support of presidents for them, the association with those mechanisms with institutions for the participation of civil society, the proportion of women in the legislature, and the role of protest as an instrument of contention or an opportunity for negotiation.…”

“…The result of these conferences was the development of a national women's policies plan. According to Matos and Paradis (2013), interviewees from various movements, parties, and international organizations were almost unanimous in saying that the relationship between the movements and the Special Secretariat was close. As Bohn (2010) has shown, another form of dialogue was the allocation of at least two-thirds of its budget to the financing of projects presented by civil society and local state actors (municipalities, state departments, etc.).…”

Participación de las mujeres en empresas de hospedaje del municipio de Toluca. Análisis de su empoderamiento

“…Por otro lado, Cobo (2014) menciona cómo la mujer fue teniendo mayor participación en la sociedad, por ejemplo al obtener derechos como ciudadanas. En la actualidad la participación de la mujer en la sociedad continúa evolucionando y hay quien ya incorpora una "cuarta ola" feminista (Matos y Paradis, 2013). Cabe destacar que el proceso de incorporación de la mujer en la sociedad ha sido paulatino y a través de los años ha incrementado su participación en diversos ámbitos, tal es el caso del laboral, político, social, entre otros; sin embargo, en algunos no ha sido totalmente aceptada.…”
