Work, Identity and Social Links: Reflections and experiences at the flexible capitalism. 2006 The book put together the contributions of a group of Latin-American and European researchers, in a Seminary. The event took place in April 2005, at Santiago , Chile , and was organized by the Women' Studies Center and the Diego Portales University 's School of Psychology . A new path for women? Editor: María Elena Valenzuela Remunerated work continues to be a central
element in the lives of women. Despite the major advances made during
the 1990s in Latin America in pursuit of greater gender equity, especially
because of the increased presence of women in the labor market. An important gap still remains and the
challenges still pending are of great importance. A new feminist silence?: The transformation
of a social movement in Chilean post-dictatorship. 2004 This book, aptly named, definitively breaks
the silence that has surrounded the theory and practice of Chilean feminism
since the return to civilian government. The book is based on in-depth
interviews with dozens of activists in three of the main cities of the
country, on detailed organizational profiles of a broad spectrum of feminist
groups, on extensive documentary evidence, and on a meticulous review
of relevant secondary sources. A new feminist silence offers us convincing conceptual innovations,
recent empirical data and a provocative political analysis, establishing
new parameters for future studies about the feminist movement and other
social movements in Chile in the post-transitional period. Work is transformed:
production relations and gender relations. 2004 (pdf 730 Kbs.) Editors: Rosalba Todaro and Sonia Yáñez How has the relationship between work and the other dimensions of life
changed since the times of our grandmothers? Is the relationship that
women have to work and to the family different from that which men have?
In what way are the two spaces of work and family related? Are we in a
different epoch? Or are we moving toward totally new forms of social organization? These are some of the questions which
this book seeks to answer. Free and Equal? : Society and politic
from the feminist perspective. 2003 Author: Judith Astelarra
This is a book to be read by different
generations of men and women. For those of us who were part of this process,
personal experience acquires order and sense in the context of theory.
For young people who are living in a different reality, whose origins
lie in the struggles and debates of the previous decades, these pages
will help them to understand the collective processes that have influenced
their personal lives in a decisive way. The importance of feminist struggles and of the creation of theoretical thought from a feminist perspective for building democracy is made evident in these pages as a reality validated by history and as a relevant question in the dawning of a new century.
