The article aims at exploring the Intersectionality, mainly in terms of a methodological proposal able to analyze in details the complexity of inequality and discrimination. By questioning the women universal condition as caracterized by the same oppression, thanks to the contributions of Intersectonality and no western feminisms, the essay elaborates a feminist perspective of critical realism, sensitive to the different contexts. In the final part, the essay takes into consideration some critical aspects of Intersectionality, by focusing on the risks potentially embedded in this proposal: the tendency to fix identities in an essentialistic framework, and the lack of a transformative vision of politics and society.
