MARTINEZ CRUZ, Alicia. Weaving strategic identities: Oaxaca Assembly of Indigenous Women. Nómadas [online]. 2016, n.45, pp.169-187. ISSN 0121-7550.

From the strategic management of ethnicity and gender identities of the Oaxaca Assembly of Indigenous Women (AMIO for its Spanish acronym), the article analyzes the resistance and political negotiations established with the government towards the defense of the rights of indigenous women. It analyzes the works of feminist theorists related to postmodernism, postcolonialism and subaltern studies. The article describes the complex processes of social and political actions of AMIO when assuming various roles such as being female, indigenous as well as their historical struggles, woven from identity policies which are fundamental for a negotiation with the government.

Palabras clave : gender; ethnicity; political identity; performativity.
