Movimiento nomo en Colombia: un estado del arte sobre estudios de mujeres que no quieren ser madres

Abstract

The present qualitative academic article prepared a state of the art to recognize the main reasons why the Nomo Movement is a trend in Colombia, the latter understood as the doctrine that groups women who by free choice do not want to be mothers. Based on a heuristic and hermeneutical research method, the facts that preceded motherhood were analyzed based on the purpose set out and it was observed that these are strongly linked to the social construction of women, therefore, the Nomo Movement acquires relevance as an ideology that breaks certain social norms and dictates a new way of looking at female reality. In this sense, three qualitative research studies are presented that from different perspectives examine Colombian women who opted for non-procreation. The analysis of the common aspects in the narratives of the research proposed allowed us to recognize that not choosing to be a mother is the result of the social currents that prevail in the postmodern era, where individualism is the protagonist and motherhood is no longer understood as an organic obligation. but as one more option.
