Thanks to information provided by Monica Lanfranco in this interview, we have the opportunity to trace the history of feminist thought in Italy over the last 50 years. To do this, we use the history of the magazine Marea, which this Genoese activist, journalist and essayist founded in 1994 and has edited ever since. From the difficulty of openly asserting the magazine’s feminist stance to the issues of ecofeminism, including the debate triggered by the magazine during the G8 summit in 2001 and the focus on secularism in a section of the international feminist movement, which Marea identifies with, Monica Lanfranco enables us to take stock of the present and understand the importance of developing feminist thought to address the challenges we will all have to face in the future.
