Abstract
Marcela Lagarde nació en la Ciudad de México en 1948 y es profesora de Antropología en la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM). Autora de varios libros y numerosos artículos sobre feminismo por los que es conocida y reconocida en toda Iberoamérica, es asesora de las Naciones Unidas en cuestiones de género y ha recibido la medalla del Instituto Nacional de las Mujeres del Distrito Federal que se concede a mujeres distinguidas del ámbito académico, cultural y social en México.
Ha sido diputada federal del congreso mexicano, en la bancada del Partido de la Revolución Democrática (PRD), donde formó parte de la Comisión de Equidad y Género y presidió la “Comisión Especial para conocer y dar seguimiento a las investigaciones relacionadas sobre los feminicidios en la República Mexicana”. Desde su escaño como diputada, promovió activamente la redacción y aprobación de la Ley General de Acceso de las Mujeres a una Vida Libre de Violencia, aprobada en 2007. En esta entrevista, realizada en septiembre de 2007 en el marco del Congreso de Antropología de la Federación de Asociaciones de Antropología del Estado Español (FAAEE) celebrado en San Sebastián- Donosti, Marcela Lagarde hace un repaso de su recorrido vital a través del feminismo, el activismo, la acción política, la antropología y la academia.
