Abstract

This article traces the history of cross-class alliances among Brazilian feminists over the last several decades. It hopes to offer insights into how we may "tame" the challenges of constructing coalitions across differences in a changing political environment by examining two cases: Brazil's National Feminist Network for Health, Sexual, and Reproductive Rights, and Brazil's chapter of the World March of Women.
