Abstract
El presente estudio sobre Cuidados, Género y Poscolonialismo conducente a un trabajo de tesis doctoral profundiza en el análisis de los procesos de Cuidados y sus múltiples imbricaciones con la categoría Género, la división sexual del trabajo a él asociado de los cuidados, y está instruido por el campo de las teorías Poscoloniales y Feministas Poscoloniales para apreciar sus efectos en el presente poscolonial de las personas, las mujeres caboverdianas que participan en este estudio. Para ello fue necesario emprender un trabajo de campo etnográfico repartido en varias estancias en la Republica de Cabo Verde y en Madrid (España) entre los años 2011 y 2018. Las vidas de la mujeres estudiadas se conectan con los procesos de construcción del Estado-nación, la invisibilización de sus contribuciones, tanto en el fase colonial y en la poscolonial en Cabo Verde, a un movimiento constante. Mi discusión concreta aterriza en esta vidas de madres separadas de sus hijas e hijas que se fueron a otros países a estudiar y ellas están en Cabo Verde, pensando y trabajando para ayudarlas desde lejos, o las que no migraron y emprendieron rutas hacia el progreso personal y social, contando consigo mismas y la fuerza de las sororidades femeninas. En el presente texto se ha trabajado cuestiones que incluyen y contextualizan la ‘agencia de las mujeres’ y de las mujeres caboverdianas estudiadas con una amplia historia que las precede y que relaciona el conocimiento tanto en la historia del continente africano, y de forma específica en la de Cabo Verde, bien como su diáspora y la agrega a una realidad local y global, histórica, humana y geográficamente plural, híbrida, complexa, desigual y diversa. Para ello he situado en un marco feminista político poscolonial una crítica al modelo del orden colonial y al extractivismo ecológico de antaño que lo acompañó en la imposición de lógicas de valores jerárquicos y patriarcales en lo que respecta la importancia de lo femenino como práctica de vida y la naturaleza, y su subordinación al proyecto colonial imperialista perpetrado en nombre de lo masculino, lo universal y lo humano. Para ello, tomo como estudio de caso las mujeres caboverdianas y exploro el contexto geográfico, histórico y sociopolítico poscolonial que explica la posición/lugar de las mujeres caboverdianas tanto en la isla de Santiago, de Cabo Verde como en Madrid, capital de España...
This dissertation work connects the study on Care, Gender and Postcolonialism into the analysis of care processes and their multiple overlaps with the gender category, the sexual division of labor associated with care, and is instructed by the field of Postcolonial and Postcolonial Feminist theories to appreciate their effects on the postcolonial present of the people, the Cape Verdean women participating in this study. For this, it was necessary to undertake an ethnographic fieldwork spread over several stays in the Republic of Cape Verde and in Madrid (Spain) between the years 2011 and 2018. The lives of the women studied relate to the processes of nation-state construction, the invisibility of their contributions, both in the colonial and post-colonial phases in Cape Verde, to a constant movement. My real discussion set down in the lives of mothers separated from their daughters and daughters who went abroad to study and they remained in Cape Verde, thinking and working to help them from afar, or those who did not migrate and embarked on routes towards personal and social progress counting on themselves and the strength of female sororities. For this, I have placed in a postcolonial feminist political framework a critique of the model of the colonial order and the ecological extractivism of the past that accompanied it in the imposition of hierarchical and patriarchal value logics regarding the importance of the feminine as a practice of life and nature, and its subordination to the imperialist colonial project perpetrated in the name of the masculine, the universal and the human. To do this, I take Cape Verdean women as a case study and explore the postcolonial geographical, historical and socio-political context that explains the position / place of Cape Verdean women both on the island of Santiago, Cape Verde and in Madrid, capital of Spain...
