GONZALEZ GARCIA, Robert  y  ARAIZA DIAZ, Alejandra. Feminism and Okupación in Spain: The Case of Eskalera Karakola. Sociológica (Méx.) [online]. 2016, vol.31, n.87, pp.207-236. ISSN 2007-8358.

This article deals with the mingling of the feminist movement and the Okupación (squatters) movement in Spain. The authors analyze the case of Eskalera Karakola, the most emblematic, long-standing feminist occupation in Spain. To do that, they did two in-depth interviews with key activists, and based on that, lay out feminism's(s') current debates and the reciprocal implications they have with the practice of okupación. They conclude that this collective displays the traits of third-wave feminism, seeking the sustainability of life and caring. These, together with the thirst for autonomy, are some of the convergences with the Okupa Movement.
