Abstract :
[en] How can an activist organisation that adheres to feminist values and engages in antisexist actions strengthen masculine domination within itself? Based on an ethnographic investigation into the anti-globalisation group Les Désobéissants (The Disobedients), this chapter examines how masculine domination hierarchises the activist space and how this activist space reconfigures the relations between men and women. By combining the contributions of the sociology of social movements and gender studies, it shows how the sexual division of activist labour and the pervasiveness of sexism in activist circles consolidate male power and privileges. But this domination does not apply equally to each woman and each situation and is not without limits. Female defections and microresistance introduce fissures in the rock of masculine domination.
