“…Enríquez's depiction of the body as a vehicle of collective socialization also draws narrative energy from what Gago describes as the “idea force of body‐territory”, a notion which “de‐liberalises the notion of the body as individual property” and “expands our way of seeing, based on bodies experienced as territories and territories experienced as bodies” (Gago, 2020, p. 85). As Gago notes, the “body‐territory” has energised a new wave of Latin American feminisms, who have deployed the term as “a tool” to link “machista violence to the political, economic, and social violence that results from the complex but fundamental logic of current forms of exploitation, which are making women's bodies into new territories to conquer” (Gago et al., 2018, p. 61). In viewing the body and territory as interwoven sites of struggle against the “new enclosures” of neoliberalism, the “Burning Women”’s ceremonies are fuelled by the political discourse of the “body‐as‐battlefield”, which sees “each body [as] a territory of battle, an always‐changing assemblage, open to becoming; it is a fabric that is attacked and needs to defend itself; and at the same time, it is remade in those confrontations, persisting as it practices alliances” (Gago, 2020, p. 87).…”
