Vers une grille d'analyse féministe radicale de l' empowerment en contexte fédéral : les luttes agricoles en Inde.

In this article, I present the potential of using a radical feminist approach to empowerment as an analytical framework in federal studies. To do so, I develop an analytical framework that is part of the fourth wave of gender and federalism studies that focuses on the interactions between embedded oppressions and federal arrangements (institutions, practices, discourses). I study the empowerment processes of farmers who protested against the implementation of new agricultural laws in India in late 2020. Through this case, I first illustrate how federalism contributes to the fragmentation of marginalized groups, while raising the need to build federal arrangements from local realities, ecosystems and environments. I then show how a radical feminist conception of empowerment can change analytical perspectives in federal studies and make visible structures that perpetuate interlocking oppressions within a federation.
