Title: Género y ruralidad: Estudio de las particularidades del entorno que inciden en la desigualdad

Abstract: We live in a society in which gender equality is theoretical (just look at the huge number of laws that legislate on the subject). Reality, however, shows us that Law is an androcentist construct (Favila, 2020) and as the legal structure is based on custom - not exempt history - we obtain, as Ribas (2015, quoted in Favila, 2020) indicates, a Law that is a product of our society and culture. It happens in the same way with gender, science, economics, history... with which we observe how the reminiscences of patriarchy (Gerner, 1985) and its ideological effectiveness are naturalised and propagated through different instruments such as politics, education or the media (Prieto, 2018). We need a different way of understanding the world that leaves patriarchal logic behind, deconstructing who we have been in order to understand who we can become (Herreros, 2017). Our objective is to analyse the real scope of gender equality in a specific environment, the rural one -narrated by its own women- in order to find the different axes of inequality affecting rural women using a qualitative perspective (semi-structured interviews and a questionnaire of open questions) and under the theoretical framework of social constructionism. We will try to gather knowledge that will allow us to improve women's social support networks and promote female empowerment and the expansion of effective equality between women and men. Although the future of the rural areas (Fernández, 2010) depends on the role given to women through services that allow them an adequate personal and professional development, after carrying out our research we have found palpable gender inequalities related to the labour market (Torns and Recio, 2012) or the social fabric, which, far from disappearing, are increasing and transforming.
