  Attention to North-South hemispheric relations has been one key theoretical issue of Latin American feminism reflected in the ample scholarship on the migration of ideas. Latin American feminisms, much like Latin American philosophy, have shown concern over the authenticity of ideas that have traveled from epistemic centers (e.g., the United States, Europe). However, unlike Latin American philosophy, Latin American feminisms have responded to this concern by developing theories that attend to dynamics with which ideas travel and the way in which ideas are re-negotiated and re-signified as they move across locations. Generally, the claims about the ways in which ideas are reconfigured as they enter new contexts emerge over concerns about the travel of ideas in a North-South direction, which not only remains non-reciprocal, but further signals the centrality of North America and Europe as the centers of knowledge production. Latin American feminisms have critically argued against the general understanding that ideas are formed in the “North” and travel to the “South” (Connell 2014). In order to defend this position, it is argued that the act of translating is itself a materially situated political task that re-signifies ideas as they migrate into varying contexts. The ideas that emerge in the Latin American context are themselves unique to the circumstances that generate their conditions of articulation. However, circumstance is not sufficient to create uniqueness; rather, the processes of translation involved in the movement of ideas across hemispheres shift meaning.
