(Universidad de Cuenca, 2024-09-10) Palomeque Arias, Nataly Lorena; Pacheco Lupercio, Fernanda Lucía
The present thesis analyzes the ways in which the bodies of feminist women are part of the repertoires of collective action in the city of Cuenca-Ecuador; understanding that these constitute an expression of agency that, in this case, allows the struggle to achieve the objectives of feminist activists to be expressed. The repertoires of action are diverse and respond to an intergenerational feminism that is sustained through actions that are configured over time and from the body. This research, being descriptive, provides a perspective on the ways in which the body as a social being is part of the actions and through its capacity for agency allows demands to be positioned and influence a social reality. The research design is mixed qualitative, where the case study is combined, which contributes to the investigation, the construction of the case and the grounded theory as a strategy of inductive analysis, starting from the data for the creation of a substantive theory. The techniques used to obtain data were: interviews, both individual and group, and participant observation. Regarding the results obtained, an interpretation is offered on the relevance of the bodies of feminist women as repertoires of collective action, starting from understanding their corporality’s which cross the line of the physicality of the body and give meaning to the action, allowing us to understand the importance of emotions, their subjectivities and their own agency as factors that occur in and from the body.
