Sumario:Feminist theory has been rethought from multiple epistemologies, strands and perspectives, in a contextualized way to the local reality of the thinkers and to the demands present in the historical struggles of the different currents of the feminist movement. With this, the various feminist theoretical strands, such as plural epistemologies, seek to address gender violence from multiple perspectives. Among such currents is decolonial feminism, whose central agenda includes the critique of gender coloniality. Given this, the present work seeks to demonstrate the contribution of the scientific production of decolonial feminist theory to feminist epistemologies, as an analytical tool of gender violence as a social problem. For that, a bibliographical research was carried out, based on secondary sources of analysis. It is concluded that, based on the counter-hegemonic perspective present in decolonial feminist theory, this scientific production is proposed as a true scientific revolution in the field of gender studies.
