From local to global: feminist and postcolonial approaches to the relationship between the Antipodes (Galicia-Australia)

Olga Castro

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Starting from the exploration of the common features related to a postcolonial and feminist analysis, I will attempt to establish new relationships and to open up new perspectives within the cultural exchanges between the two nations, Galicia and Australia, within a global world. On the one hand, this will be new relationships in favour of a non-sexist language which contributes to overcoming gender discrimination; and on the other hand, new relationships which favour a re-evaluation of voices which have been silenced by hegemonic and centralised discourses.
