On the other hand, Afro-Peruvian women included as representatives share characte-ristics such as their origins in families unrelated to politics and an outstanding career as professional volleyball players.

This relationship, however, occurs amid paradoxes between the exclusion and inclusion of Afro-Peruvian women in general.Desde 2000, mujeres reconocidas como afroperuanas han estado siempre presentes en el Congreso peruano. Este hecho distingue al Perú de otros países de la región, donde las mujeres afrodescendientes están ampliamente ausentes. Por otro lado, las mujeres afroperuanas incluidas como representantes comparten características tales como sus orígenes en familias no relacionadas con la política y una destacada trayectoria como voleibolistas profesionales. Este artículo explora sus rutas hacia el poder político desde una perspectiva interseccional, mediante entrevistas semiestructuradas con mujeres identificadas como afroperuanas electas para el Congreso de la República del Perú entre los años 2000 y 2016. En lugar del camino tradicional hacia el poder a través de lazos familiares o los caminos del activismo político y comunitario, las participantes de este estudio ejemplifican una ruta alternativa hacia ser elegidas representantes: el vóleibol. Esta relación, no obstante, se da en medio de paradojas entre la exclusión y la inclusión de las mujeres afroperuanas en general.Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú2020-12-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/debatesensociologia/article/view/2302010.18800/debatesensociologia.202001.002Debates en Sociología; Núm. 50 (2020): Deporte y sociedad: miradas críticas desde América Latina - Parte 1; 37-662304-42840254-9220reponame:Revistas - Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstname:Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstacron:PUCPspahttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/debatesensociologia/article/view/23020/22019http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:revistaspuc:article/230202023-07-24T17:56:56Z |
