»¡Viva la mujer que lucha! / Naj živi ženska, ki se bori«: Feministično izobraževalne prakse v Oaxaci, Mehika ; ‘¡Viva la mujer que lucha! / Long Live the Woman Who Fights Back’: Feminist Educational Practices in Oaxaca, Mexico

Magistrsko delo obravnava ženska gibanja in aktivizem v Oaxaci, Mehika, ter njihov doprinos h krepitvi moči žensk skozi neformalno izobraževanje. Teoretsko izhodišče raziskave, katere glavni namen je spoznati značilnosti življenja žensk, njihovega učenja in izobraževanja v povezavi s spreminjanjem odnosov in družbene moči, je konceptualizirano na raziskavah s področja študij spolov, etničnosti, izobraževanja odraslih in razvoja, z razumevanjem, da vsi koncepti, ki so sprejeti na »globalnem severu«, niso najbolj ustrezni instrumentariji za interpretacijo raziskovane kulture. Podatki so bili zbrani z multimetodnim pristopom, s poudarkom na etnografskem raziskovanju. Krepitev moči žensk, ki se kot praksa razvije kot odgovor na aktualno družbeno stanje, je posledica skupnega delovanja različnih elementov in se v vsakdanjih življenjih sogovork izraža v dejanjih, spretnostih, odnosih, razvoju mišljenja in diskurza, predvsem pa okrepljeni samozavesti ter razvoju samospoštovanja. ; This Master's thesis addresses women's movements and activism in Oaxaca, Mexico, and their contribution to women's empowerment through non-formal education. The main research purpose is to learn about the characteristics of women's lives, learning and education in relation to changing relationships and social power. The theoretical framework is conceptualised on research in gender studies, ethnicity, adult education and development, with the understanding that not all concepts accepted in the ‘Global North’ are the most appropriate tools for interpreting the culture under study. The data were collected by using a multi-method approach, with an emphasis on ethnographic research. Women's empowerment, which as a practice develops in response to the current social situation, is the result of the joint action of various elements and is expressed in the everyday lives of women through actions, skills, relationships, the development of thinking and discourse, and, above all, enhanced self-confidence and the growth of self esteem.
