This indispensable text reader provides a broad-ranging and
thoughtfully organized feminist introduction to the ongoing
controversies of development in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Designed for use in a variety of college courses, the volume
collects an influential group of essays first published in Latin
American Perspectives a theoretical and scholarly journal focused
on the political economy of capitalism, imperialism, and socialism
in the Americas. The reader is organized into thematic sections
that focus on work, politics, and culture, and each section
includes substantive introductions that identify key issues,
trends, and debates in the scholarly literature on women and gender
in the region. Demonstrating the rich and multidisciplinary nature
of Latin American studies, this collection of timely, empirical
studies promotes critical thinking about women's place and power;
about theory and research strategies; and about contemporary
economic, political, and social conditions in Latin America and the
Caribbean. Valuable as both a supplementary or primary text,
Rereading Women makes a convincing claim for a materialist feminist
analysis. It convincingly shows why women have become an
increasingly important subject of research, acknowledges their
gains and struggles over time, and explores the contributions that
feminist theory has made toward the recognition of gender as a
relevant indeed essential category for analyzing the political
economy of development.
