In 1975, the First World Conference on Women, also known as the World Conference of the International Women's Year, was held in Mexico City. It was the first international conference held by the United Nations that focused exclusively on issues related to the condition of women in the world and marked a turning point in political directives.

Five decades later, the journal Cuestiones de Género: de la igualdad y la diferencia is publishing this special issue entitled “50 Years of Feminism in Spain and Latin America”. We aim to address, from different perspectives, issues related to theory, debates, legislation and institutional policies, advances and setbacks, the agenda of yesterday and today, both in Spain and in Latin America, as well as to highlight the figure of great representatives of Ibero-American feminism.

The underlying idea, in addition to the importance of reconstructing and recording what has been achieved and how it has been done, is that beyond the determining influence of the Anglo-Saxon world, with its idiosyncrasy and its own debates that export and almost impose and are experienced as their own, when they are not, feminism in the Spanish language, both in theory and in its large mobilizations and its own forms of expression, has its own voice to understand and analyze the self-awareness and the current moment of one of the social movements that has contributed most to outlining the debates on knowledge, political action and the ideals of Equality, Justice and Freedom.

Those who are interested in sending us articles for the next issue can do so through our web platform by registering as an “Author” and attaching their article at the same time. People who are already registered on the platform can send their article from their profile.

We also remind you that we have the “Open Forum” section, which welcomes contributions with a different theme than the monograph, as well as a section for book and movie reviews.

The deadline for receiving the next issue ends on February 28, 2025 and we will be very grateful for your collaboration.
