Critical Interpretation of a Populist Feminist Manifesto

Abstract
In this article we propose a critical interpretation of the Manifesto for 99% Feminism, which, taking up the slogan of the Occupy movement, calls for the creation of a global alliance between the various feminisms of the March 8th strikes and the marches against Trump in America. We are interested in discussing the routes proposed by the authors of this text —Cinzia Arruzza, Tithi Bhattacharya and Nancy Fraser— to create a hegemonic bloc that will be able to confront and transform the policies of neoliberal capitalism. At the same time, we wish to draw attention to the risks involved in a political proposal that expresses a populist feminism, which operates with abstract antagonisms that reproduce historical oblivion and epistemic hierarchies between the Global North and South and polarize current feminisms.
