Interconnected or Branched Roads? Trotskyism and Feminism in Argentine Activism in the 1970s

The aim of this article is to analyze how an Argentine revolutionary organization with a Trotskyist tradition, the Socialist Workers' Party (PST), was influenced by national and international controversies related to women's activism and feminist theories prevalent in the 1970s. The way in which these concepts were put into practice and transformed into a distinctive feature of this organization will be analyzed (especially when compared with the rest of the leftist proposals of this period). At the same time, the various moments of this experience will be identified through the development of five distinct moments with respective characteristics and discussions. This article aims to contribute an analytical perspective that reflects on the role of revolutionary organizations, the dynamics of social movements such as feminism, and the changes in this articulation according to the different political moments Argentina experienced during the years covered.

Abstract

The aim of this article is to analyze how an Argentine revolutionary organization with a Trotskyist tradition, the Socialist Workers' Party (PST), was influenced by national and international controversies related to women's activism and feminist theories prevalent in the 1970s. The way in which these concepts were put into practice and transformed into a distinctive feature of this organization will be analyzed (especially when compared with the rest of the leftist proposals of this period). At the same time, the various moments of this experience will be identified through the development of five distinct moments with respective characteristics and discussions. This article aims to contribute an analytical perspective that reflects on the role of revolutionary organizations, the dynamics of social movements such as feminism, and the changes in this articulation according to the different political moments Argentina experienced during the years covered.
