Intersectional Feminism At The Truth Commission: Recent Article By Juliana González
In her most recent article published in Third World Quarterly, CAPAZ researcher and collaborator Juliana Gonzalez published an article entitled “Feminist intersectional activism in the Colombian Truth Commission: constructing counter-hegemonic narratives of the armed conflict in the Colombian Caribbean”.
The article analyses the resistance and barriers of transitional justice to address historical intersectional inequalities and examines efforts to incorporate intersectionality in Colombia’s Truth Commission (CEV). The analysis is informed by ongoing dialogues and collaboration with feminist activists working as CEV researchers in the Caribbean and examines these activists’ understanding of intersectionality as a political project and their strategy of executing it as a “critical praxis” to construct counter-hegemonic analyses of the armed conflict that centralizes the experience of historically marginalized sectors.
