Representaciones sociales y contextos de investigación con perspectiva de género
En este libro se exponen diversas contribuciones de investigación social en contextos específicos. Se plantean reflexiones críticas acerca de fenómenos emergentes en la cultura y su dinámica de interacción multicausal, en su gran mayoría, desde una perspectiva de género. Cada colaboración expone su propia epistemología y aplicación metodológica, por lo que contribuye al avance de campos específicos de conocimiento y, por lo tanto, a una forma de comprender y articular categorías de análisis y promisorias en sus propios contextos de indagación.
The Zapatista Movement and Mexico's Democratic Transition
Transitions from authoritarian to democratic governments can provide ripe scenarios for the emergence of new, insurgent political actors and causes. During peaceful transitions, such movements may become influential political players and gain representation for previously neglected interests and sectors of the population. But for this to happen, insurgent social movements need opportunities for mobilization, success, and survival. This book looks at Mexico's Zapatista movement, and why the movement was able to mobilize sympathy and support for the indigenous agenda inside and outside of the country, yet failed to achieve their goals vis-à-vis the Mexican state.
