摘要:Latin American women’s participation in the production of knowledge has a long and richhistory, though this record is frequently invisible in both Northern feminist accounts and inLatin American accounts. Of course, the Northern feminists usually cannot read Spanish orPortuguese. Moreover, some of the most innovative contributions of women to the pro-duction of knowledge in Latin American have their origins in the oral and spiritual tra-ditions of indigenous and other local women, and thus have escaped report throughconventional academic practices. Additionally, these knowledge contributions aremostly produced in the context of political activism, and thus also remain invisiblethrough conventional research methodologies. Furthermore, while women’s or genderstudies programs and centers began to be institutionalized in Latin American universitiesby development agencies in the mid-1980s and 1990s, they subsequently have shifted totheoretically and politically broader questions about inequalities and biopolitics, as well asviolence and labor.
