Resumo: | Cocalero women in southern Colombia, the largest coca cultivation area and where drug policies took place since the early 2000s, experience rights violations and violence against their bodies and productive resources due to the country’s decades-long “war on drugs”. Because they are peasant and cocalero women, many of them indigenous and Afro-Colombian, they deal with oppressions that are reinforced by military presence and confrontation between different armed groups. The aim of this paper is to reflect on the Decolonial Feminism contributions for an analysis of the situation of Colombian cocalero women who experience the policies of forced eradication of coca crops and the militarization of the territory. In drawing attention to the marginalization and objectification of feminized and racialized bodies, reproduced since the colonization period, Decolonial Feminism enables a specific critical analysis of the “war on drugs” political impacts on women. Cocalero women’s bodies are often conceived as territories where the conflicts and disputes among state, paramilitary and criminal groups occur, reaffirming the power relations established during colonialism. |

Cocalero women’s bodies are often conceived as territories where the conflicts and disputes among state, paramilitary and criminal groups occur, reaffirming the power relations established during colonialism.As mulheres cocaleiras no sul da Colômbia, região de maior cultivo de coca e palco das políticas antidrogas desde o início dos anos 2000, vivenciam um contexto de violações de direito e violência contra seus corpos e atividades em decorrência da “guerra às drogas” conduzida há décadas no país. O fato de serem mulheres camponesas, muitas delas indígenas e afro-colombianas, e cocaleiras potencializa as opressões existentes em um ambiente de militarização e confronto entre grupos armados. O objetivo deste artigo é refletir sobre as contribuições do Feminismo Decolonial para analisar a situação das mulheres cocaleiras colombianas que vivenciam as políticas de erradicação forçada dos cultivos de coca e a militarização do território. Ao chamar atenção para a marginalização e objetificação dos corpos feminizados e racializados reproduzidas desde a colonização, o Feminismo Decolonial permite uma análise crítica e particular dos relatos e informes que abordam os impactos da política de “guerra às drogas” nas mulheres. Os corpos das mulheres cocaleiras são muitas vezes concebidos como território nos quais o conflito e as disputas entre atores estatais, paraestatais e criminosos se desdobram, reafirmando as relações de poder estabelecidas durante o colonialismo.UFRGS2022-02-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/ConjunturaAustral/article/view/11387110.22456/2178-8839.113871Conjuntura Austral; Vol. 13 No. 61 (2022); 80 - 92Conjuntura Austral; Vol. 13 Núm. 61 (2022); 80 - 92Conjuntura Austral; v. 13 n. 61 (2022); 80 - 922178-8839reponame:Conjuntura Australinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/ConjunturaAustral/article/view/113871/66450Copyright (c) 2022 Helena Salim de Castro, Gabriela Aparecida de Oliveirainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessde Castro, Helena Salimde Oliveira, Gabriela Aparecida2022-02-24T23:38:09Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/113871Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/ConjunturaAustralPUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/ConjunturaAustral/oaiconjunturaaustral@ufrgs.br||reisdasilva@hotmail.com||nerint@ufrgs.br||andre.reis@ufrgs.br2178-88392178-8839opendoar:https://seer.ufrgs.br/ConjunturaAustral/oaihttps://seer.ufrgs.br/ConjunturaAustral/oai2022-02-24T23:38:09Conjuntura Austral - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false |
