Abstract

This essay deals with a few of the different configurations of Spanish feminist discourse represented in the theoretical and activist practices of transfeminism, which is in turn revealed to be in constant dialogue with and opposition to feminism of an institutional bent. The essay also seeks to understand how transfeminism is integrated into public space, not without opposition within the movement itself, through the appropriation and conquering of the symbolic production generated by technologies of institutional power. To this end, the article takes as its central case the debate series La internacional cuir, held in 2011 at Madrid’s Reina Sofía Museum, and analyzes the discursive responses from different spaces of a new online feminist praxis that conceptualizes itself as transfeminist.
