Popular and Civil Feminism in Mexico Sample Clauses

Popular and Civil Feminism in Mexico. After the 1960s, Mexico suffered from an economic and social depression: the GNP dropped, the population was growing, there was an urgent need for the attribution of land, unemployment rates were going up rapidly, and public resources were lacking. As a result, new left-wing, social, political, and union movements became active. In the context of these popular movements, new women’s organizations emerged, influenced by feminist ideology and new left-wing discourse. Women active in the popular movements began to realize that their grieves were not solely related to class, but also to gender, and that the needs of women were no priority for their mixed unions and popular 34 For more information: xxxx://xxx.xx.xxx/en/women/endviolence/index.shtml 35 For more information: xxxx://xxxxxxxx.xxx/; xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxx.xxx/ associations (Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 2009: 94).

At the beginning of the 1980s, there were only a few civil organizations associated with the popular movements in Mexico, but their role as support groups was very important and highly valued. Women’s organizations active within civil feminism had performed community and educational work, and from this experience they developed specific methodologies. NGOs often imposed their feminist views on women’s organizations, but the civil feminists wanted to create their own discourse based on a dialogue with women (Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 2009: 153-154, 159-165, 173).
