Participación política, Activismo digital, Desigualdad de género, Redes sociales, Discurso feminista, Violencia simbólica, Ciudadanía digitalResumen
El artículo analiza el papel transformador de las redes sociales en la participación política de las mujeres. Destaca cómo estas plataformas permiten la movilización feminista, amplifican voces y desafían estructuras patriarcales. A pesar de su potencial, persisten desigualdades estructurales y violencia simbólica. Se propone una mirada crítica de la participación digital con enfoque de género, y se enfatiza la necesidad de políticas inclusivas y prácticas mediáticas feministas.
