Gender perspective in the cuban cooperatives: economic empowerment vs occupational segregation
Cooperativism, due to its particularities, has great potential in favor of gender equality, despite the latent inequities in the prevailing androcentric system. The article aims to argue the way in which the cooperative identity addresses the gender perspective, particularizing in occupational segregation that exacerbates inequality between women and men. For such purposes, a qualitative research methodology has been used, with a descriptive and correlational approach. The transversality of gender in legislative and institutional matters and in public policies in the Cuban case was valued. Women’s economic empowerment was addressed as a necessary process to achieve greater gender equity. From the theories of employment segmentation, occupational segregation was emphasized, at a vertical and horizontal level, given the hiring of women in highly feminized and more precarious sectors, which perpetuates the traditional roles of patriarchal roots. This proposal aims to promote female empowerment and provide a new epistemology to the gender approach in the cooperative field.

El cooperativismo, por sus particularidades, tiene un gran potencial a favor de la igualdad de género, pese a las inequidades latentes en el sistema androcéntrico imperante. El artículo tiene como objetivo argumentar la forma en que la identidad cooperativa aborda la perspectiva de género, particularizando en la segregación ocupacional que agudiza la desigualdad entre mujeres y hombres. Para tales fines se ha empleado una metodología de investigación cualitativa, con enfoque descriptivo y correlacional. Se valoró la transversalidad de género en materia legislativa e institucional y en las políticas públicas en el caso cubano. Se abordó el empoderamiento económico femenino como proceso necesario para el logro de una equidad de género. Desde las teorías de la segmentación del empleo se enfatizó en la segregación ocupacional, a nivel vertical y horizontal, habida cuenta de la contratación de mujeres en sectores altamente feminizados y más precarizados, lo cual perpetúa los roles tradicionales de raigambre patriarcal. La propuesta pretende potenciar el empoderamiento femenino y dotar de una nueva epistemología el enfoque de género en el ámbito cooperativo.
