Abstract

With the objective of making an approach to two ways to address the matriarchal civilization paradigm, it is exposed about the systematization of the philosophy of the matriarchal societies carried out by Heide Göettner-Abendroth, on the one hand, as well as about the work on the origins Matriarchals of civilization by Abdullah Öcalan. The personality and life experience of the German philosopher Göettner-Abendroth, as a woman who also suffered academic discrimination due to the controversy caused by her line of research, stands out in this resistance to patriarchy. On the other hand, from a different perspective than the western one, but coincident in the aspects that put the origin of the matriarchal, the testimony of the life of the political and intellectual leader Kurdo Abdullah Öcalan is presented, which continues to be unjustly imprisoned as a result of its defense of the women's revolution: "Woman, life and freedom." The contrast presented between these two diverse referents allows to see the diversity of arguments that exist to maintain that matriarchy not only exist, but resist by millennia. Common points are sought between an investigation into the matriarchal indigenous societies around the world and the paradigm of a democratic confederalism that has its roots in the archeology of the first civilizations that were matriarchal.
