El género es un eje de desigualdad clave para comprender los procesos transformadores que ha vivido nuestra sociedad. La visibilización de la diferenciación de género y su articulación con las otras desigualdades sociales nos permite abordar los diversos niveles del análisis social desde una perspectiva más amplia e integradora. Es así, que la finalidad de la revista Punto Género es aportar al desarrollo y la difusión de la temática de género en ciencias sociales, relevando los nuevos temas que abre esta perspectiva, así como replantear críticamente los problemas tradicionales en sociología, enfocándose en la sociedad chilena y la región latinoamericana.
