abstract: Anarchism irrupted in Argentina in the last quarter of the 19th Century as a consequence of the great immigration waves arriving to the country. In this paper we will focus on the first feminine anarchist newspaper La Voz de la Mujer (The Voice of the Woman,1896-1897), edited by a group of working women, that defined themselves as anarcho-communist. We will, first, analyse the specific discourse used by these women while pursuing two major objectives to achieve consciousness of the double exploitation, work and domestic, they suffered and the use of the newspaper as an educational devise. We will take special attention to the social concepts they express over the feminine body and their reflection about bodily autonomy and control. This study will use concepts from Feminist Epistemologies such as the categories of gender, intersectionality, hierarchical dichotomy, gender roles and social norms. We will propose that they created a feminine anarchist political culture with their own objectives and identities, considering them not as a sum of identities but as a blending of their being anarchist, workers, and women.
