Abstract
We present research results on the speeches made by the leaders of women's organizations that belong to the Aymara people in northern Chile between 1980 and 2015 and that are configuring processes of affirmation of gender identities. The analysis of applied interviews and statements made by them during this period gives account of discursive practices that are modified according to the sociopolitical contexts and according to the dynamics of political participation that they themselves lead. Three moments can be identified: the first exposes the demand for the recognition of the cultural difference in the context of the national society; The second is characterized by the emphasis on citizen demands; And the third to consider male domination in colonization contexts. This tour shows processes of affirmation of gender identities that are configured in the political struggle for a new type of inclusion in the national society. The discourses elaborated mediated the representations of gender and produced new subjectivities and therefore constitute tools for the struggle against structures of domination.
