Abstract

In this article, I expose some elements to understand the present of the feminist movement in the Spanish State. Through the analysis of protest episodes that start with 15M in 2011 and conclude in 2018 with the 8M strike, I identify the current coexistence of two feminist worldviews in a generational aspect, where the contrast in respect to the place in the socialization occupied by the new technologies it is presented as an important differentiating element. Argument as the open code of social networks applied to activism that is consolidated after the Arab Spring and, in Spain, after the 15M, has acted as an effective mechanism against disaffection and for social mobilization, useful for feminism, resulting in a new scenario of interrelation between generations.
