The west and the women of the rest

≈ 2 mins de leitura

Catarina Martins

This article briefly discusses how non‑‑western women are represented in discourse and in social and political practices in the West. From conservative right‑‑wing positions to progressive feminism, it seems that some kind of (neo)colonial culturalist representations are still at work to render the women of the Rest invisible and their voices unheard. Are we, as westerners, really championing for their causes?
