| Sumario: | Considering the contemporary imbrications around feminisms and extractivisms, this dossier initiated by the magazine Memorias Disidentes (Dissidient Memories) proposes to delve into the different uses, dimensions and under[1]standings of both concepts within the framework of the struggles of the last two decades of the 21st century in the south of Abya Yala. We consider that extractivism and neo-extractivism are not only reduced to the presence of extractivist projects such as large-scale mining or the exploitation of hydrocarbons, among others, recognizing the need to specify the South American criticism that these concepts propose in their intimate connection with the movements social. From an anti-extractivist feminist proposition we affirm that extractivisms also constitute ontological colonizations that make possible processes of dispossession and violence intrinsic to the multiple contemporary dynamics in which modern-Western patriarchy-capitalism-neocolonialism is reproduced. Following this spirit, in this issue we call on different contributions from feminist, diasporic and queer authors, academic activists, indigenous and territorial defenders, members of indigenous communities and organizations, migrant feminist collectives and networks, ecofeminists and anti-extractivist, who share valuable theoretical reflections and experiences of fighting underway.
