slowly and partially

Meanwhile, feminism is only reacting slowly and partially, although in recent years the debates around this topic have increased somewhat. In addition, a specific sector of women, many of them close to the feminist and / or ecologist movement, based on psychological theories that emerged especially in the mid-twentieth century Keto Max Burn, which have not been sufficiently reviewed, have also echoed this concern and have I was seconding the need of the mother / child-a relationship, especially in the first years of life.

That is to say, they assume uncritically this re-naturalization of women and even think that their approaches are revolutionary in that they defend more "humanistic" ideas and / or alternatives to biomedicine. All this despite the fact that we have a very extensive bibliography of many years of work that shows in a strong way the social and cultural nature of motherhood, which should serve to radically question the essentialist and ethnocentric readings that are being made, and that is a material key to connect medical and scientific discourses with social, legal and political discourses, and above all to unmask and denounce them.
