Interseccionalidad encarnada: actos sub-versivos y ejercicio de autonomía

Abstract

In the framework of feminist studies, the notion of “intersectiona-lity” has served to de-center the political subject and to criticize the (supposed) universality of white experience and identity. However, the concept of “intersectionality” -which points to the discernment of specific modalities of discrimination and oppression- seems to leave out the specificity of the body and situated experience. The present work will try to distinguish the intersections of the concept of “inter-sectionality”, to come to consider the processes of mutual affectation between the bodies (individual and collective) and the normative matrix, as well as the subversive powers produced in said process. For this, contributions will be taken from embodied theory, queer theory and decolonial theory. Likewise, it will work in relation to the poetic-autobiographical piece Y cuando se vayan, llévense sus retra-tos, with the intention of taking situated knowledge and incarnated experience third world women as expert knowledge.
