We will delve into the challenges this sector faces through their political participation. We will observe that while these women develop significant social capital at the community level, it fails to be translated into political capital to generate better opportunities within the party. This does not only create disadvantages of gender but also of class status and education. In the second part of the article, we will discuss the transformations of gender identity that are related to political activity and leadership development.En este artículo reflexionaremos, desde la perspectiva de género, acerca de la población que realiza el trabajo de base de los partidos políticos, conformada en su mayoría por mujeres que además de militar en un partido, han desarrollado liderazgos en el ámbito comunitario debido, principalmente, a las actividades de gestión social que realizan. Profundizaremos en las dificultades que enfrenta este sector a lo largo de su participación política. Observaremos que, si bien estas mujeres desarrollan un importante capital social en el ámbito comunitario, éste no logra ser traducido en un capital político que genere mejores oportunidades dentro del partido. Lo anterior proviene no sólo de desventajas de género, sino también de la condición de clase y el nivel de escolaridad. En la segunda parte del artículo haremos un recuento de las transformaciones de la identidad de género que están relacionadas con la actividad política y el desarrollo de estos liderazgos.Universidad Autónoma de Aguascalientes2016-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-Reviewed ArticleArtículo evaluado por paresapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.uaa.mx/index.php/caleidoscopio/article/view/11910.33064/0crscsh119Caleidoscopio - Biannual Journal of Social Sciences and Humanities; Número Especial de Género (2016); 18-44Caleidoscopio - Revista Semestral de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades; Número Especial de Género (2016); 18-442395-95761405-7107reponame:Caleidoscopioinstname:UNIVERSIDAD AUTÓNOMA DE AGUASCALIENTESinstacron:UAAspahttps://revistas.uaa.mx/index.php/caleidoscopio/article/view/119/108Derechos de autor 2016 Caleidoscopio - Revista Semestral de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidadesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:revistas.uaa.mx:article/1192024-08-22T19:25:05Z
