About the Publication
In 2000, in a volume entitled Women in Contemporary Culture, I collaborated on the chapter I am sharing with you, about the historical struggle of Spanish women during the twentieth century. I intended to make a projection onto the century that was about to start which, according to Victoria Camps, was going to be the century of women. Twenty years later, I would like to celebrate the 8th of March 2021 by revisiting Camp’s words and consider some of the challenges that we are facing: the effects of economic crisis of 2008, the impact of social media, the centrality of environmental issues, the ethical debates that new assisted reproductive technologies have put on the table, new discourses about gender(s), the impact of great scale migrations, and of course, the consequences of the Covid19. What does feminism(s) look like in the Hispanic and Lusophone world in the first quarter of the twenty-first century?
