Ecofeminismo: La respuesta feminista a los problemas ambientales
[David Alexir Ledesma Feregrino, La Hoja de Arena] ¿Qué es y cómo surgió el ecofeminismo? Y más importante, ¿qué propone? El pensamiento feminista y las preocupaciones ecologistas tuvieron su más grande encuentro en los años setenta, al analizar desde perspectivas confluyentes el problema de la superpoblación mundial. En 1974, la escritora y feminista francesa Françoise d’Eaubonne acuñó por primera vez el término ecofeminismo para referirse … Continue reading Ecofeminismo: La respuesta feminista a los problemas ambientales

5 Reasons You Should Care About Environmental Justice If You Care About Women
If you live in the United States, it’s easy to see certain matters as feminist issues. A bunch of creepy, old white dudes policing reproductive health is clearly a feminist issue. Republicans banning trans women from using the women’s restroom, apparently because they have some weird fantasy about cis men dressing up as ladies after seeing too many unfunny ‘90s comedies, is obviously a feminist issue. Donald Trump bragging about … Continue reading 5 Reasons You Should Care About Environmental Justice If You Care About Women

Ecofeminismo, una propuesta para repensar el presente y construir el futuro
[Marta Pascual Rodríguez y Yayo Herrero López – Ecologistas en Acción] El pensamiento patriarcal estructura el mundo en una serie de dualismos o pares de opuestos que separan y dividen la realidad. Cada par de opuestos, en los que la relación es jerárquica y el término normativo encarna la universalidad, se denomina dicotomía. Cultura o naturaleza, mente o cuerpo, razón o emoción, conocimiento científico o saber … Continue reading Ecofeminismo, una propuesta para repensar el presente y construir el futuro
How Ecofeminism Works
[Winifred Fordham Metz, 12/04/2008] What would you do if you found out that all of the trees in your state were scheduled to be cut down? Or your city’s main water source was slowly being contaminated? Or maybe that your condo sat atop a toxic waste dump? Would you move? Would you write to your representative in Congress? Maybe you would organize a group to … Continue reading How Ecofeminism Works
Ecofeminism: Sociology and environmentalism
[Kathryn Miles] Ecofeminism, also called ecological feminism, branch of feminism that examines the connections between women and nature. Its name was coined by French feminist Françoise d’Eaubonne in 1974. Ecofeminism uses the basic feminist tenets of equality between genders, a revaluing of non-patriarchal or nonlinear structures, and a view of the world that respects organic processes, holistic connections, and the merits of intuition and collaboration. … Continue reading Ecofeminism: Sociology and environmentalism
Ecofeminism
[from: http://www.thegreenfuse.com%5D Ecofeminism There is no single definition of ecofeminism, and ecofeminists may well disagree with at least some of explanations I give in this section, but there are core principles. Ecofeminists agree that the domination of women and the domination of nature are fundamentally connected and that environmental efforts are therefore integral with work to overcome the oppression of women. The primary aims of … Continue reading Ecofeminism
Ecofeminism: Historic and International Evolution
[Laura Hobgood-Oster] Ecofeminism emerged in the 1970s and 1980s as myriad forms of feminist and environmental theories and activisms intersected. The term was introduced by Francoise d’Eaubonne in her book Le Feminisme ou la Mort [Feminism or Death] published in 1974. Some theorists, such as Ynestra King, name it as a third wave of feminism, while others place it in the general category of deep … Continue reading Ecofeminism: Historic and International Evolution
Ecofeminism Revisited: Rejecting Essentialism and Re-Placing Species in a Material Feminist Environmentalism
[Greta Gaard] ©2011 Feminist Formations, Vol. 23 No. 2 (Summer) pp. 26–53. Formulated in the 1980s and gaining prominence in the early 1990s, by the end of that decade ecofeminism was critiqued as essentialist and effectively discarded. Fearing their scholarship would be contaminated by association with the term “eco-feminism,” feminists working on the intersections of feminism and environmentalism thought it better to rename their approach. … Continue reading Ecofeminism Revisited: Rejecting Essentialism and Re-Placing Species in a Material Feminist Environmentalism

Mujeres, comida y cuidados
[Esther Vivas, 08/03/2014].”Se trata, como dicen las economistas feministas, de colocar la vida en el centro. Visibilizar, valorar y compartir dichos trabajos de cuidados, y la naturaleza. Hacer visible lo invisible, mostrar la parte oculta del “iceberg”. Valorar estas tareas como imprescindibles, reconocer quienes las ejercen y otorgarles el lugar que se merecen. Y, finalmente, compartirlas, ser corresponsables. La vida y el sustento es cosa … Continue reading Mujeres, comida y cuidados
