Even though studies on state feminism have focused on its effects on the feminist movement, or in the progress of the gender agenda, its opposite relation has remained less explored: how does feminism influences the state? In this article I analyze the Spaniard, Chilean and Peruvian cases from the late 1970s to the present in order to look over the relationships between state feminism and the state´s reform. I propose that these influences can be traced in at least three aspects: the reform of the welfare models, the introduction of new concepts and management tools, questioning the-so-called neutrality of New Public Management and the way in which transnational or global feminism policies are translated or indigenized in different state contexts.
