Most of the expressions of collective agency are analyzed in this book with the context of the neoliberal model of globalization that has seriously affected most Latin American and Caribbean women's lives in multiple ways. Contributors explore the emergence of the area's feminist movement, dictatorships of the 1970s, the Central American uprisings, the urban, grassroots organizing for better living conditions, and finally, the turn toward public policy and formal political involvement and the alternative globalization movement. Geared toward bridging cultural realities, this volume represents womens transformations, challenges, and hopes, while considering the analytical tools needed to dissect the realities, understand the alternatives, and promote gender democracy--From publisher description. 000351587 650_0 $$aWomen$$xPolitical activity$$zLatin America. 000351587 650_0 $$aWomen$$xPolitical activity$$zCaribbean Area. 000351587 650_0 $$aFeminism$$zLatin America. 000351587 650_0 $$aFeminism$$zCaribbean Area. 000351587 650_0 $$aWomen$$zLatin America$$xSocial conditions. 000351587 650_0 $$aWomen$$zCaribbean Area$$xSocial conditions. 000351587 650_0 $$aPolitical activists$$zLatin America. 000351587 650_0 $$aPolitical activists$$zCaribbean Area. 000351587 7001_ $$aMaier, Elizabeth. 000351587 7001_ $$aLebon, Nathalie. 000351587 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tWomen's activism in Latin America and the Caribbean.$$dNew Brunswick, N.J. : Rutgers University Press ; Tijuana, Mexico : El Colegio de la Frontera Norte A.C., c2010$$z9780813547282$$z9780813547299$$w(DLC) 2009020399$$w(OCoLC)349180026 000351587 8520_ $$bacq 000351587 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000351587 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url= https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=867797$$zOnline Access 000351587 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:351587$$pGLOBAL_SET 000351587 980__ $$aEBOOK 000351587 980__ $$aBIB 000351587 982__ $$aEbook 000351587 983__ $$aOnline
