Historiography of the Gender Problem in the Mexican Socialist Armed Movement (MASM) of the 1960s and 1970s

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the problem of androcentrism in the historiography of the MASM and problematize the extent to which traditional history has invisibilized women. The historiographical contributions of Women’s History and Gender History are used to establish a theoretical and methodological basis to explain why a male guerrilla narrative has prevailed and what routes, questions, problems, and methodologies could be used to frame women as key social agents and rewrite the history of the MASM.
