Abstract
- The article explores the perspective of Bolivian feminist activist María Galindo on the recent military incursion in Bolivia and her critique of the country's political system. Galindo emphasizes the need to challenge oppressive structures and rethink the concept of the nation-state. The article also discusses the creation of a Feminist Constitution in Bolivia, led by marginalized groups such as Indigenous women, lesbian women, and the urban working class. The Feminist Constitution aimed to center the voices of these groups and propose innovative ideas for social transformation. However, challenges remain in achieving true gender equality and self-recognition for marginalized groups in Bolivia. [Extracted from the article]
