8M

Since 2016, a movement is spreading from Latin America that actualizes the Women's Struggle Day on 8 March as the boiling point of an intersectional struggle. Against the interwoven phenomena of escalating violence against women*, neo-liberal exploitation, increasing racism and neo-authoritarian regimes, this movement creates a new and always situated internationalism. As a contribution to the feminist strike in 2019 transversal texts accompanies the book 8M. The great feminist strike (https://transversal.at/books/8m) with other current texts on the topic.

Isabell Lorey’s introduction to the book 8M - Der große feministische Streik. Konstellationen des 8. März connects the Latin American feminist strikes with the actual feminist movements in Europe.

In the last few decades, violence against women* has been escalating into a "war on women," as Rita Laura Segato calls it: all kinds of structural and sexual violence, including feminicide, brutal discursive tendencies of misogyny and transphobia, the devaluation of care and reproduction, and "anti-genderism". Since 2017, a movement has spread outwards from Latin America that builds on the 8th of March, the day of women's struggle, as the turning and boiling point of an intersectional and transversal struggle.
