Eva
En "Eva. Relato colectivo de una transición" la autora se construye, en una identidad Travesti Trans, dentro de un escenario real y en constante cambio, como lo es Argentina. Con ella, transiciona el mundo que nos rodea, porque nos obliga a repensarnos y asumir la responsabilidad que tenemos en la construcción de les otres. Eva no busca conmover ni emocionar, no esperen un relato emotivo que apele a la poética de las palabras, más bien uno que deja de relieve la importancia de las luchas colectivas en la obtención de derechos. Un ejemplo de ello, es la Ley de Identidad de Género. La autora pone énfasis en la importancia del lenguaje como una forma esencial en la construcción, no solo de la cultura sino también de la identidad. Es posible conocer, a través de su testimonio, los diferentes ámbitos que Eva transita, desde lo cotidiano y familiar, hasta el activismo y la constante lucha por la defensa de los Derechos Humanos.
Denial, Delay, Diversion
Principled humanitarian action is under attack around the world. Globally, 70.8 million people are considered forcibly displaced by armed conflict and nearly 132 million people need emergency humanitarian assistance. At the same time, there has been a steep escalation in the deliberate, willful obstruction of humanitarian access, impeding the ability of humanitarian aid to reach the most vulnerable people and vice versa. As humanitarian emergencies become increasingly complex and protracted, blocked humanitarian access will only increase without urgent action. To ensure the ability of aid to reach those who need it most and to uphold the principles of international humanitarian law, the United States should elevate humanitarian access as a foreign policy priority and work to reconcile tensions between critical national security measures and the growing needs of vulnerable populations in fragile, conflict-affected states. This report is the result of the CSIS Task Force on Humanitarian Access.
Mémoires und Mon Histoire
Katharina die Große (1729–1796) kam 1744 nach Russland. Nachdem sie mehrere Jahre ein Schattendasein am Hof Elisabeths I. geführt hatte, katapultierte sie sich nach deren Tod in ihrer Palastrevolte vom 28. Juni 1762 an die Spitze des Russischen Reiches. Bis 1796 regierte sie eines der mächtigsten Imperien. Im Zuge ihrer Krönung in Moskau ernannte Katharina II. die Fürstin Katharina R. Daschkowa (1743–1810) zu ihrer Hofdame. Diese stand als Direktorin der Sankt Petersburger Kaiserlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften und als Präsidentin der Russischen Sprachakademie vor. Sie bereiste Westeuropa, wo sie mit bedeutenden Persönlichkeiten wie Diderot, Voltaire und Franklin Bekanntschaft machte. Beide Frauen beschreiben in ihren Autobiographien die für eine Kulturgeschichte der Frau der europäischen Aufklärung interessanten Aspekte wie Schreiben (Femme de lettres), Moral (Femme morale), Maskerade (Femme masquée) und Bildung (Femme intellectuelle).
