PEREZ, Olivia Cristina  e  RICOLDI, Arlene Martinez. The Fourth Wave of Feminism in Brazil. Rev. Estud. Fem. [online]. 2023, vol.31, n.3, e83260.  Epub 01-Set-2023. ISSN 1806-9584.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1806-9584-2023v31n383260.

The research approaches Fourth-Wave Feminism in Brazil using some strategies. First, its characteristics were highlighted according to authors who write on the subject. Subsequently, we analyzed some of these characteristics (the presence in the digital environment, the defense of more than one agenda and the way they are being organized) based on data collected on all the pages of feminist organizations (114) registered on a digital social network (Facebook). Based on the results, we argue that contemporary feminisms are part of a fourth wave characterized by mobilization via digital media, adoption of intersectionality and organization in the form of collectives. In addition to pointing out traits of contemporary feminisms, the study problematizes the novelty and homogeneity sometimes associated with the fourth wave and its characteristics.

Palavras-chave : feminism; fourth wave; social movements; collectives; intersectionality.
