Using her observations of the United Nation's Fourth World
Women's Conference held in China in 1995 as a foundation, the
author examines the history and current situation of Latinas and
attempts to place them in a global context. After examining the
goals, objectives, and atmosphere of the Conference, she analyzes
the Chicana feminist movement and its legacy and how Chicanas have
struggled to relate to the Conference and its human rights
platform. She then profiles U.S. Latinas and presents data on their
reality in today's world. The response to U.S. expansionist
policies and the Americanization process is examined and related to
the Chicana feminist movement and its legacy. An important
synthesis for students and researchers in Ethnic and Race Relations
and Women's Studies.
