Abstract

Historiography has extensively examined how the 1973 Chilean coup caused a strong emotional impact abroad and several solidarity activities were set up to garner support for the victims of political repression. In spite of this, less specific attention has been dedicated to the international echo produced by very active social subjects during the dictatorship: women’s associations. During the seventies, across the entire region, women engaged in the struggle for human rights overlap in the public sphere with second-wave feminism. These two aspects of women’s visibility and agency sometimes yielded cooperations, and other times produced tensions and distances. This article, taking a gendered look at solidarity networks, is a first approach to the intertwined dimensions of exile, political activism, and international solidarity and their related bibliography.

2023
El golpe chileno de 1973 causó un fuerte impacto emocional en el pano - rama internacional y provocó la emergencia de varias iniciativas solidarias hacia las víctimas de la represión, como ha sido ampliamente reconstruido por la historiografía. Menos investigada es la resonancia global de la acción de sujetos muy activos durante la dictadura como fueron las asociaciones femeninas. En los setenta, como en toda la región latinoamericana, se cruzan en la esfera pública unos fuertes compromisos de las mujeres hacia los derechos humanos con los primeros reflejos de la segunda ola feminista. Estas son dos vertientes de visibilidad y agency que a veces logran plasmar formas de cooperación, pero otras veces viven tensiones o distancias. A la luz de una mirada de género hacia las redes solidarias, el ensayo propone una primera aproximación tanto temática como bibliográfica a una serie de problemas que surgen a partir de la interacción entre la dimensión del exilio, la militancia y los circuitos de la solidaridad internacional.
