Download or read book Historia de las mujeres en América Latina written by Juan Andreo García and published by EDITUM. This book was released on 2002 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El objetivo principal de este libro es impulsar un campo de estudio de la historia de las mujeres en América Latina, que reconozca que las experiencias de las mujeres conforman una historia específica, aunque no independiente de las de los hombres. Esta nueva visión de la historia social que incluye a los grupos anónimos- como las mujeres-, significa un aporte importante en la historiografía de finales del siglo XX, cuando las mujeres y los desplazados conquistaron el derecho a la historia, a una historia de la que dejaron de ser sólo víctimas para convertirse en protagonistas.
Book Synopsis Feminismo para América Latina by : Katherine M. Marino
Download or read book Feminismo para América Latina written by Katherine M. Marino and published by Grano de Sal. This book was released on 2021-09-27 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "¡Si pudiéramos nosotras, las mujeres, sacudir nuestro continente!", le escribió en 1931 la cubana Ofelia Domínguez Navarro a Paulina Luisi, la médica uruguaya que para entonces era una veterana de la lucha feminista en América Latina. Este libro es la historia de esa sacudida: Katherine M. Marino recorre aquí la singular forma de entender los derechos de la mujer que se dio en nuestro continente en la primera mitad del siglo XX. El feminismo panamericano fue un movimiento que se valió de las formas de la diplomacia para lograr el compromiso de los Estados por el sufragio femenino, la igualdad de derechos sociales y laborales, la protección de la infancia. En los agitados tiempos del Frente Popular, de la solidaridad internacional con la República Española, del temor al fascismo, un puñado de activistas supo sumar fuerzas más allá de las fronteras para expresar un pensamiento igualitario de vanguardia que pronto colocó la lucha feminista en un plano más amplio, aunque no menos polémico: la defensa de los derechos humanos. Además de Domínguez Navarro, Luisi y muchas más feministas de México, Argentina y otros países, estas páginas tienen como protagonistas a la bióloga brasileña Bertha Lutz, la abogada panameña Clara González y la periodista chilena Marta Vergara —y, quizás en el rol de antagonista, a la estadounidense Doris Stevens— y como clímax la aportación latinoamericana a los cimientos de la ONU. La sacudida que produjeron esas mujeres audaces y claridosas aún hoy puede sentirse. "Este libro es un recuento brillante y ambicioso de los orígenes del feminismo global. Marino comprueba que en la primera mitad del siglo XX las latinoamericanas estaban a la vanguardia del activismo feminista internacional y reconstruye este movimiento radical, trasnacional e influyente." Michelle Chase, International Feminist Journal of Politics

Book Synopsis História dos feminismos na América Latina by : Dora Barrancos
Download or read book História dos feminismos na América Latina written by Dora Barrancos and published by Bazar do Tempo. This book was released on 2022-06-17 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apoiado em vasta pesquisa e experiência ativista, a historiadora argentina Dora Barrancos apresenta neste livro um panorama inédito das correntes de pensamento e de ação política que deram origem e forma aos movimentos feministas da América Latina. Estabelecendo como marcos temporais os séculos XX e XXI, a autora elabora uma cartografia dos movimentos feministas da região, destacando ações históricas e pioneiras de mulheres como Gregoria Apaza e Bartolina Sisa, guerrilheiras indígenas que lutaram contra o colonialismo espanhol na Bolívia; Serafina Dávalos, a primeira advogada formada no Paraguai; Berta Cáceres, líder indígena hondurenha; Amalia Mallén de Ostolaza, sufragista e ativista cubana; Paulina Luisi, ativista e primeira mulher a se formar em medicina no Uruguai, e a brasileira Helena Greco, parlamentar ativista na luta contra a ditadura militar no país. Ao percorrer os países latino-americanos em sua geografia e tempo histórico, Dora Barrancos revela como esta atuação feminista aparentemente dispersa inspirou e garantiu um importante legado para as reivindicações feministas contemporâneas no território, focadas, sobretudo, nas pautas que dizem respeito à violência e à autonomia sobre o próprio corpo, uma força política que se alastra pela região e irmana cada vez mais as mulheres e suas lutas. "História dos feminismos na América Latina, de Dora Barrancos, é uma obra de referência, um verdadeiro livro de cabeceira para todas as pessoas que entendem que a história do feminismo é central para compreendermos a história das nossas nações. É também, e sobretudo, uma valiosa contribuição para aquelas e aqueles entre nós que procuram identificar as qualidades idiossincráticas do que descrevo como 'politicidade em chave feminina', ou seja, uma forma diferente e feminina de fazer política e de transformar o mundo." – Rita Segato

Book Synopsis Movimientos de mujeres en América Latina by : Maxine Molyneux
Download or read book Movimientos de mujeres en América Latina written by Maxine Molyneux and published by Universitat de València. This book was released on 2003 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los conflictos en torno al género y el poder político han sido un componente fundamental en la historia del mundo moderno. «Movimientos de mujeres en América Latina» analiza la política de género y las políticas públicas en conexión con los estados, las políticas estatales y las revoluciones en los países del sur de América. Pero aunque el enfoque principal lo constituye América Latina, las cuestiones teóricas que conforman los análisis tienen una aplicación más amplia, tienen un carácter más comparativo. Se pretende, pues, poner en relación las experiencias de países individuales y, al mismo tiempo, explorar hasta qué punto lo que pueden parecer procesos específicos de un país determinado son en gran medida procesos internacionales.
Book Synopsis The Routledge Global History of Feminism by : Bonnie G. Smith
Download or read book The Routledge Global History of Feminism written by Bonnie G. Smith and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-02-21 with total page 793 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the scholarship of a global team of diverse authors, this wide-ranging handbook surveys the history and current status of pro-women thought and activism over millennia. The book traces the complex history of feminism across the globe, presenting its many identities, its heated debates, its racism, discussion of religious belief and values, commitment to social change, and the struggles of women around the world for gender justice. Authors approach past understandings and today’s evolving sense of what feminism or womanism or gender justice are from multiple viewpoints. These perspectives are geographical to highlight commonalities and differences from region to region or nation to nation; they are also chronological suggesting change or continuity from the ancient world to our digital age. Across five parts, authors delve into topics such as colonialism, empire, the arts, labor activism, family, and displacement as the means to take the pulse of feminism from specific vantage points highlighting that there is no single feminist story but rather multiple portraits of a broad cast of activists and thinkers. Comprehensive and properly global, this is the ideal volume for students and scholars of women’s and gender history, women’s studies, social history, political movements and feminism.
Book Synopsis Feminisms in Latin America by : Gisela Zaremberg
Download or read book Feminisms in Latin America written by Gisela Zaremberg and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-01 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Element analyzes the features of current feminist movements in Latin America and their responses to conservative reactions. For this, it focuses on the pro-choice movement vis-à-vis the anti-abortion countermovement in Mexico and Brazil. It offers a relational approach embracing the dynamics within the feminist field and between feminism and the state to capture the movements' potential effects. First, the Element proposes the concept of nested feminist networks, which comprises of three dimensions revealing the plurality of the movement across intersectional and sexual identity issues (horizontal), its relationship with the multifaceted state (vertical), and the intermediation of political parties and participatory institutions in this relationship (intermediary). Second, it argues that nested networks allow feminists to enable policies and block actions from conservatives. In sum, it explores how feminists, leveraging their plurality and connection with the state, can counter conservative attacks.
Book Synopsis Women's Suffrage in the Americas by : Stephanie Mitchell
Download or read book Women's Suffrage in the Americas written by Stephanie Mitchell and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2024-07-01 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first hemispheric study to trace how women in the Americas obtained the right to vote, Women's Suffrage in the Americas pushes back against the misconception that women's movements originated in the United States. The volume brings Latin American voices to the forefront of English-language scholarship. Suffragists across the hemisphere worked together, formed collegial networks to support each other's work, and fostered advances toward women gaining the vote over time and space from one country to the next. The collection as a whole suggests several models by which women in the Americas gained the right to vote: through party politics; through decree, despite delays justified by women's supposed conservative politics; through conservative defense of traditional roles for women; and within the context of imperialism. However, until now historians have traditionally failed to view this common history through a hemispheric lens.
Book Synopsis Women’s Rights in Movement by : Inés M. Pousadela
Download or read book Women’s Rights in Movement written by Inés M. Pousadela and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-10-11 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an updated comparative overview of women’s movements in Latin America and the Caribbean, filling some of the gaps left by the existing literature. It brings together case studies of nine countries – Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Mexico, Nicaragua, and Peru – and includes a comparative analysis of the overall evolution of women’s rights movements across the region during the past decades. This analysis shows Latin America as the home to the largest, strongest, and most densely regionally and globally interconnected women’s rights movements in the Global South. Each chapter in this volume seeks to understand where the struggles for women’s rights come from, how they stand today and where they are headed to. To do so, they all use qualitative methodologies, and most resort to first-hand accounts of the processes described and reflections by the actors on their own experiences, collected through surveys, in-depth interviews and/or ethnographic observations. The comparative analysis of the different national case studies reveals the main struggles in which women’s rights movements are currently involved in Latin America and the Caribbean: the quest for political representation within the State and its political institutions; the fight against gender violence and the struggle for sexual and reproductive rights – especially abortion rights. Women’s Rights in Movement: Dynamics of Feminist Change in Latin America and the Caribbean will be a valuable resource for researchers, activists and policy makers interested in the struggles for women’s rights not only in Latin America and the Caribbean, but in different parts of the world. It will be of special interest to sociologists, political scientists, anthropologists and other social scientists working in interdisciplinary fields such as gender and social movements studies.

Book Synopsis World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality by : Gesine Müller
Download or read book World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality written by Gesine Müller and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-10-21 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From today’s vantage point it can be denied that the confidence in the abilities of globalism, mobility, and cosmopolitanism to illuminate cultural signification processes of our time has been severely shaken. In the face of this crisis, a key concept of this globalizing optimism as World Literature has been for the past twenty years necessarily is in the need of a comprehensive revision. World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality: Beyond, Against, Post, Otherwise offers a wide range of contributions approaching the blind spots of the globally oriented Humanities for phenomena that in one way or another have gone beyond the discourses, aesthetics, and political positions of liberal cosmopolitanism and neoliberal globalization. Departing basically (but not exclusively) from different examples of Latin American literatures and cultures in globalized contexts, this volume provides innovative insights into critical readings of World Literature and its related conceptualizations. A timely book that embraces highly innovative perspectives, it will be a mustread for all scholars involved in the field of the global dimensions of literature.
Book Synopsis The Failure of Modern Civilization and the Struggle for a "deep" Alternative by : Claudia von Werlhof
Download or read book The Failure of Modern Civilization and the Struggle for a "deep" Alternative written by Claudia von Werlhof and published by Beiträge zur Dissidenz. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Western civilization is the Utopia of a better and higher life on Earth. The globalization of neo-liberalism proves that this project has failed. The paradigm of «Critical Theory of Patriarchy» explains this failure and discusses alternatives. By confronting the central civilizations in history, the egalitarian, life-oriented matriarchal one, and the hierarchical, nature and life dominating, hostile patriarchal one, we see that 5000 years of patriarchy have «replaced» matriarchies and nature itself by a «progressive» counter-world of «capital». This transformation characterizes «capitalist patriarchy» including «socialism». Its demise is due to the «alchemical» destruction of the world's resources, thought of, theologically legitimized and fetishized as «creation». This violence is not recognized. Elites have, instead, begun with a new «military alchemy», treating the whole Planet as weapon of mass destruction. Hence, the «Planetary Movement for Mother Earth».
Book Synopsis Arabic-Islamic Views of the Latin West by : Daniel G. König
Download or read book Arabic-Islamic Views of the Latin West written by Daniel G. König and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2015-11-05 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arabic-Islamic Views of the Latin West provides an insight into how the Arabic-Islamic world perceived medieval Western Europe in an age that is usually associated with the rise and expansion of Islam, the Spanish Reconquista, and the Crusades. Previous scholarship has maintained that the Arabic-Islamic world regarded Western Europe as a cultural backwater at the periphery of civilization that clung to a superseded religion. It holds mental barriers imposed by Islam responsible for the Muslim world's arrogant and ignorant attitude towards its northern neighbours. This study refutes this view by focussing on the mechanisms of transmission and reception that characterized the flow of information between both cultural spheres. By explaining how Arabic-Islamic scholars acquired and processed data on medieval Western Europe, it traces the two-fold 'emergence' of Latin-Christian Europe — a sphere that increasingly encroached upon the Mediterranean and therefore became more and more important in Arabic-Islamic scholarly literature. Chapter One questions previous interpretations of related Arabic-Islamic records that reduce a large and differentiated range of Arabic-Islamic perceptions to a single basic pattern subsumed under the keywords 'ignorance', 'indifference', and 'arrogance'. Chapter Two lists channels of transmission by means of which information on the Latin-Christian sphere reached the Arabic-Islamic sphere. Chapter Three deals with the general factors that influenced the reception and presentation of this data at the hands of Arabic-Islamic scholars. Chapters Four to Eight analyse how these scholars acquired and dealt with information on themes such as the western dimension of the Roman Empire, the Visigoths, the Franks, the papacy and, finally, Western Europe in the age of Latin-Christian expansionism. Against this background, Chapter Nine provides a concluding re-evaluation.
