Abstract

The founding conditions of the public (de)limits its scope of action and interpellation. Over time, numerous groups have problematized this framework and have tried to reformulate their insertion into it through collective actions. To explore its inconsistencies, alternatives and vanishing points, the gender vector is taken. After describing the public regime, the research moves to the public space, which, as a territorialized extension of the public realm, presents in its classic conception the same limitations as the public. In an attempt to go beyond that institutional public space, groups and social movements have created their own spaces, as loudspeakers and places to make themselves visible. The article focuses on how Social Centers, as spatial and infrastructural experiments, reinvent the public encounter by producing a public space. To do this, it delves into the dissidence practiced by the feminist project La Eskalera Karakola and the challenge they launch against the current public space and the insertion of women in that public space and, therefore, in the public realm. In short, the article launches a reflection that contributes to the debate on public space and its possible multiple meanings.
