In Defense of Honor
Examines debates over sexual honor to explore the ways in which private morality was infused with the cultural politics of nation-building and modernization, and was used to legitimate power differentials based on race, gender, and class.
Women Through Women's Eyes
The nineteenth century was a period of peak popularity for travel to Latin America, where a new political independence was accompanied by loosened travel restrictions. Such expeditions resulted in numerous travel accounts, most by men. However, because this period was a time of significant change and exploration, a small but growing minority of female voyagers also portrayed the people and places that they encountered. Women through Women's Eyes draws from ten insightful accounts by female visitors to Latin America in the nineteenth century. These firsthand tales bring a number of Latin American women into focus: nuns, market women, plantation workers, the wives and daughters of landowners a...
Sex and Sexuality in Latin America
Despite the explosion of critical writing on gender and sexuality, relatively little work has focused on Latin America. Sex and Sexuality in Latin America: An Interdisciplinary Readerfills in this gap. Daniel Balderston and Donna J. Guy assert that the study of sexuality in Latin America requires a break with the dominant Anglo-European model of gender. To this end, the essays in the collection focus on the uncertain and contingent nature of sexual identity. Organized around three central themes--control and repression; the politics and culture of resistance; and sexual transgression as affirmation of marginalized identities--this intriguing collection will challenge and inform conceptions o...

100 Jahre Arbeitsmarktverwaltung
Since the First World War, in most European countries labor offices have been established. Within a few years they have become indispensable social-political phenomenons of the European welfare states. Later, state-run labor market instruments played a key role in the dictatorships of Austria and other European countries and shaped the social policy of Japan and Brazil. In their overviews and contributions to specific aspects of the labor market, the authors focus on the history of the Austrian employment offices with the aim of placing them in a larger socio-political and international historical context.
Imigração, Trabalho e Gênero (1870-1930)
Esta obra apresenta importantes reflexões acerca das experiências de milhares de sujeitos anônimos, em sua maioria, os que vieram “fazer a América” na Grande Imigração, período que abrange a segunda metade do século XIX até os primeiros decênios do XX. Cruzar o atlântico implicava se desprender de seus territórios rumo a espaços desconhecidos, movidos por imaginários ou por notícias levadas pelos que retornavam, por cartas ou mensagens transportadas pelos mares. As vivências desses homens e mulheres nos seus países de destino foram marcadas pelo gênero, por serem imigrantes e por sua inserção no mundo do trabalho local. Desta maneira, as autoras e os autores lançam múltiplos olhares sob diversos espectros de análise, fazendo que os capítulos, tanto separadamente como na organicidade da obra, tragam importantes contribuições para o campo dos estudos migratórios.
