Margarita Pisano

Margarita Pisano Fischer (28 October 1932 – 9 June 2015)[1] was a Chilean architect, writer, theoretician, and feminist belonging to the Movimiento Rebelde del Afuera (Rebel Movement of the Outside).

[3] In addition, she was one of the founders of Movimiento Feminista, an opposition group to the Military dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet where the slogan was "Democracy in the country, in the house and in the bed", a phrase promoted by Margarita and Julieta Kirkwood.

[4][5] As with Francesca Gargallo, the work of Pisano demonstrated the theoretical proposals associated with the field of gender studies but from a feminist perspective away from political analysis and activism.

They demanded recognition of the different forms of thinking and politics that existed within the feminist movement.

[10] Pisano and Bedregal's lesbian feminist writings in 1996-7 were credited with identifying a loss of radical feminism.
