¿Por qué la justicia de género y el desmantelamiento del patriarcado?

This guide by Friends of the Earth International (ATI) argues that gender justice and the dismantling of the patriarchy are essential for systemic transformation and the achievement of social and environmental justice. It advocates for a grassroots, anti-capitalist feminism to challenge interconnected systems of oppression, including capitalism, racism, neocolonialism, and heteronormativity.

• Friends of the Earth International (ATI) identifies the dismantling of the patriarchy and the pursuit of gender justice as essential components for achieving a transformative change of system, which is necessary for social and environmental justice.
• The document promotes 'grassroots anti-capitalist feminism' as a political tool and social movement rooted in the collective experiences of women across rural and urban settings, globally and locally. A critical step in this framework is the equitable redistribution of domestic and care work between men and women, supported by the State.
• Ecofeminist analysis is used to highlight the parallel exploitation of women and nature within the capitalist extractivist model. This model treats the reproductive capacities, time, and energy of women as infinite resources to offset the environmental and economic crises caused by capitalism.
• The patriarchy is defined as a system that exploits women's bodies and labor for the benefit of men as a social group, maintained through the sexual division of labor, social norms, and economic dependence. Violence and harassment are identified as tools used to maintain these power relations.
• The sexual division of labor separates the 'public space' (associated with men, paid work, and decision-making) from the 'private space' (associated with women and unpaid domestic/care work). This division supports capitalist accumulation and persists even in the public sector, where women are often concentrated in precarious, underpaid roles in health, education, and services.
• The document employs the concept of 'intersectionality' to explain how the patriarchy reinforces other systemic oppressions, including capitalism, class oppression, racism, neocolonialism, and heteronormativity, to maintain the social status quo.
• Neocolonialism is described as the violent appropriation and exploitation of peoples, cultures, and territories. Extractivist megaprojects are cited as drivers that destroy women's relationships with their lands and increase the exploitation of women's bodies through forced prostitution and sexual violence.
