El itinerario del aborto

Esta investigación se realizó con la siguiente hipótesis de trabajo como brújula: un embarazo no deseado produce una crisis subjetiva, un encuentro con un dilema ético a resolver, que reorganiza la vida de las mujeres que lo atraviesan. La manera de afrontar ese dilema dependerá de cada mujer en particular, de su clase social, de su historia personal, de sus recursos materiales y simbólicos; y además dependerá del país que habite y sus regulaciones jurídicas y de la respuesta del sistema sanitario. La legalización del aborto y la implementación de políticas públicas que garanticen el acceso seguro, legal y gratuito sin dudas implicará un avance en todo sentido para la vida de...

The Poor's Struggle for Political Incorporation

This book offers an innovative perspective on the ever-widening gap between the poor and the state in Latin American politics. It presents a comprehensive analysis of the main social movement that mobilized the poor and unemployed people of Argentina to end neoliberalism and to attain incorporation into a more inclusive and equal society. The piquetero (picketer) movement is the largest movement of unemployed people in the world. This movement has transformed Argentine politics to the extent of becoming part of the governing coalition for more than a decade. Rossi argues that the movement has been part of a long-term struggle by the poor for socio-political participation in the polity after having been excluded by authoritarian regimes and neoliberal reforms. He conceptualizes this process as a wave of incorporation, exploring the characteristics of this major redefinition of politics in Latin America.

There is considerable interest in ‘naturalising’ cities, since it can help address multiple global societal challenges and generate various benefits, such as the enhancement of health and well-being, sustainable urbanisation, ecosystems and the...
