Abstract

This article analyzes a brief writing on abortion and the situation of working women published by Marta Vergara in the newspaper La Mujer Nueva during 1936. What is done is a reading of the text from the perspective of the gender essay, identifying how the traits Characteristics of feminine essays allow the station to join the discussions about abortion and reproductive mechanisms that arose in Chile during the 1930s. Through the writing of this essay, Marta Vergara takes the floor to speak the collective voice of one of us who expresses the position of a feminist, multiclass and left-wing movement that sees the uncontrolled reproduction of the most impoverished Chilean classes as a mechanism reproducer of socio-economic inequalities.

Keywords:
