Abstract
Este artículo considera cómo la teología feminista española gestiona la diferencia. Se sugiere que el sujeto primario que ha reflexionado, y sobre el que ha reflexionado la Asociación de Teólogas Españolas colectivamente, es uno fuertemente imbricado en el marco que provee la teología católica. Para analizar este horizonte se recurre a las políticas de identidad y a la propuesta de Judith Butler sobre el género performativo, así como a experencias y ejemplos procedentes del protestantismo español. Se propone una aproximación interseccional que desactive los efectos más disensivos de las políticas de identidad, también cuando practicadas en el marco de la Asociación, y se concluye con algunas propuestas de futuro.
Abstract: In this article, I explore how Spanish feminist theology relates to difference. I suggest that the theological subject that has been the agent and the object of feminist theological reflection as practiced by the Women Society of Spanish Theologians (ATE) is embedded in the theological frame supplied by Catholic theology. To analyse and deconstruct this theological frame and its practices of representation, I draw from identity politics and Judith Butler’s performative gender theory. I also offer other experiential and narrative frameworks rooted in Spanish Protestantism while embracing an intersectional approach. In adopting intersectionality, my goal is to avoid the most harmful effects of identity politics, which are encoded in Spanish Protestantism as well as in ATE. I conclude with some prospects and challenges to Spanish feminist theology, focusing particularly on the generation of knowledge that we, as an academic and theological Society, put forward.
