Description and Table of Contents
Description
"The publication of this book marks a watershed for Latin American studies." - "Net Book Review". "The combination of an analysis of institutional and legislative reforms with their importance for individuals' lives makes this book requisite and exciting reading for the social and gender history of Latin America, as well as a significant comparative study for scholars of the United States and Europe." - "The Americas". "There is assuredly much for northern feminists (and patriarchs) to learn from this book. Highly recommended." - "Choice". Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay are geographically linked societies in Latin America, and their female citizens have shared many similar social and legal problems. Skilfully drawing on pioneering documentary research, Asuncion Lavrin describes changes in gender relations and the role that feminism has played in the development and modernization of each of the three countries. Asuncion Lavrin is a professor of history at Arizona State University. She edited "Sexuality and Marriage in Colonial Latin America" (Nebraska 1989) and "Latin American Women: Historical Perspectives".
