Reflecting on globalization from a feminist perspective

The article offers a synthetic analysis of the neoliberal globalization from a feminist perspective influenced by francophone materialistic feminist analyses, theorization of the imbrication of social power relations, and the Latino-American and Caribbean autonomous feminist movement. The debate has four entries. 1. Is capitalism an objective ally of gender equality ? Or does it worsen, by reorganizing them, the inequalities of gender, "race" and class? 2. Women in the environmental disaster, the industrial war against the rural world, rural depopulation and forced urbanization. 3. The imposition of a "development" that is harmful to women, based on exportation monoculture, exploitation of subsoil, free zones and tourism. 4. The neoliberal continuum of masculine military violence, which creates, maintains and opposes "men in arms" to "service women".
