Reverberaciones conservadoras. La defensa del orden de género en Uruguay a 50 años del Golpe de Estado

Abstract

The main objective of this article is to review the authoritarian legacy of the Uruguayan dictatorship from a feminist perspective, focusing the analysis on the conservative interventions of the present and its continuity with the patriarchal reconfiguration project of the past. Given that the current conservatisms are not a replica of the past, the article analyzes them in terms of reverberations and continuities. The comparative analysis of gender conservative strategies in the Uruguayan dictatorship and in the current conservative backlash focuses on identifying its main referents, the adversaries invoked, the assets that are sought to be safeguarded and the strategies deployed. It works with press and parliamentary debates.
