T1 Sustainability of Life as a Differentiated Approach in Feminist Economics
A1 Agenjo-Calderón, Astrid
K1 Economía feminista
AB The article makes an exhaustive review of the literature on the Sustainability of Life  approach, which has been developed specifically in the context of Feminist Economics  in Spain, Latin America and the Caribbean in the last two decades, between academia and women's movements. In fact, the article brings the public closer to a literature that is little translated, since much of it is produced in the Spanish-speaking context and outside academic frameworks, thus contributing to the construction of the broad genealogy of the FE. The article systematizes four central elements, around the need to: (a) go beyond the analysis of social reproduction to put the focus on the life-support chain; (b) go beyond the capital-labor conflict to identify the rest of the conflicts that occur within the framework of capitalism and that put dignified life in check; (c) go beyond the slogan “and women worse”, to move towards a broad understanding of the social re-creation of power; and (d) go beyond the rhetoric of the loss of the future to move towards tracing emancipatory horizons.
