Una crítica feminista a la Madre Pública Postdictatorial: los discursos de género en la campaña presidencial de Michelle Bachelet

Vera, Antonieta

Abstract

This paper suggests a critical analysis of michelle bachelet’s speeches at the 2005 presidential campaign. On the one hand, in the general context of the “representativeness crisis” could be highly profitable to relate the words “woman” and “politics” with the demand of an “other” or “new” way of doing politics. On the other hand, in the “post” context of the Latin American dictatorships, the rhetoric of “national unity” question the civilizing task of the democratic reconstruction in a heteronormative way. i will place my analysis there where both contexts meet each other to propose some ideas about the strategic discourse of women’s moral supremacy. i understand this discourse as a key to read an ideology of time and difference, that reproduce the public-private paradox as a limit of the feminist politics.
