Abstract
Extractivism is a mode of exploitation that implies a particular rationality product of the process of modernity/coloniality. Through feminist research, the purpose of this work is to rethink the extractive power by means of providing the conceptual basis for the analysis of masculinities in these contexts through the categories of gender, work, and violence. At the same time, the modern-colonial rationality, under which extractivist enclaves emerge to fragment and commercialize territories, is revealed to occur through what we call necropolitics of patriarchal expropriation. The patriarchal pact between hegemonic masculinity, and complicit and subordinate masculinities, broadens and deepens gender inequalities in extraction territories. Carrying out an analysis of masculinities in extractive sites allows us to understand the advance of extractivism, and the place occupied and disputed by male gendered subjects in the system of gender relations.
