Abstract

This article aims to incorporate an intersectional gender perspective to the study of populism as a mechanism for political incorporation, since it is argued that women from popular sectors in South American countries have been excluded both because of their economic condition and because of their gender. I will analyze the case of the populist policies implemented during the Fujimori government in Peru in relation to the community kitchens in the 1990s, in order to evaluate the extent to which these strategies resulted in the incorporation of women leaders of the common kitchens to political life. For this purpose, both bibliographic sources and primary sources that allow contextualizing the case study will be analyzed.
