ALVARADO, Mariana. Women of Latin America: Dis(re)encounters, Traffic of Ideas and Tr. Estud. filos. práct. hist. ideas [online]. 2014, vol.16, n.1, pp.13-22. ISSN 1851-9490.

The question of the subject of enunciation emerges from an academic experience and nourishes the visibility of the differences that cross us as women. Revising the open wounds that European invasion-conquest-colonization-evangelization is urgent for us. The occidental, modern, colonial, capitalist, patriarchal, implanted matrix permits to locate the double subordination of Latin American women. A dis(re)encounter with the academic humanism allows to translate the roots that cross us, the women of Latin America. In its (auto)designation the construct delimits a common space. Now this common space emerges from a common experience which dislocates hegemonic discourses and makes an "in between" among occidental and postcolonial feminisms, which enables individual views on women´s processes as epistemological and political power.

Keywords : Practical Philosophy; Humanism; Colonialism; Patriarchy; Women of Latin America.
