Resumo
A partir de una investigación etnográfica en Italia, este artículo analiza las formas en que los múltiples usos de la noción de sororidad desempeñan un papel estratégico en la articulación de formas de activismo político dentro del movimiento (trans)feminista contemporáneo de NonUnadiMeno (Ni Una Menos). Empíricamente, amplía el enfoque predominante de los estudios sobre las problemáticas implicaciones políticas de la noción como universal unificador a una exploración de las dimensiones complejas, multidimensionales y a menudo conflictivas de su uso en las prácticas cotidianas del movimiento. Más concretamente, se analiza cómo la noción de hermanas/sororidad opera tanto como significante a nivel macro así como en la escala micropolítica de la asamblea semanal. El uso de un enfoque etnográfico contribuye a iluminar el papel, actualmente poco explorado, que la noción de sororidad sigue desempeñando como significante que da forma a los compromisos políticos cotidianos de las militantes. Teóricamente, el artículo contribuye al estudio de cómo las metáforas y el lenguaje operan en la ‘creación del mundo’ de estas activistas transnacionales, en la promoción de su subjetivación colectiva y en la articulación de formas novedosas de cuidado afectivo dentro de la vida social y política del propio movimiento.
