“…I do not discuss the women's movement or the impact of feminism in Salvador, mainly because of lack of space. As has been documented elsewhere in Brazil and Latin America, women have indeed organised at &grassroots' level around issues of &consumption' such as services and infrastructure (Alvarez, 1990;Corcoran Nantes, 1990;Schild, 1994;MacEwen Scott, 1994). This has been stimulated in part by the activity of feminists, especially those based professionally in the university.…”

“…Women have always been present in social movements (West and Blumberg, 1990), but there is a limited amount of literature on women in mixed social movements in general (Bhattacharjya et al, 2013;Kuumba, 2001;Robnett, 1997) and even less in Brazil (Corcoran-Nantes, 1990;Perry, 2013;Verschuur, 2011).
