Sumario:The Brazilian feminist movement has grown substantially in recent years. The diversity of feminist blogs and different articulations made possible by feminism on the web have contributed to the growth and strengthening of the movement in the country. In view of this situation, in the year 2015, one witnessed the emergence of a feminist political project at the partisan level: the project #partidA was created, an attempt to form a political party linked to feminism. Bringing a feminist ethical-political proposal of radical democracy, #partidA is formed by militants and intellectuals from various regions of the country who articulate themselves mainly through web mechanisms. The aim of this work is to analyze the construction of this new political party, rescuing its formation and recent trajectory and verifying how this movement emerges as an alternative that seeks to overcome the dichotomy between institutionalization and autonomization through the initiative of creating a social movement that works as a feminist political party. The research methodology was qualitative, with the use of content analysis of official #partidA posts located on the web; information acquired in interviews with members of the south axis of the party is also used to obtain more information about the movement. Feminist Movements.
