Geografías feministas de diversas latitudes

Esta compilación surgió como resultado del proyecto de investigación IN304813 "La participación política de las mujeres en el Legislativo Federal 1953-2013", llevado a cabo en la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México UNAM con el financiamiento del Programa de Apoyo a Proyectos de Investigación e Innovación Tecnológica (PAPIIT), de la Dirección General de Asuntos del Personal Académico (DGAPA). Uno de sus objetivos fue dar a conocer a la geografía feminista como una rama de la ciencia geográfica, por lo que se convocó a geógrafas y geógrafos de distintas nacionalidades a presentar sus investigaciones para que se conozca el desarrollo de esta línea de investigación en México y algunos otros países, en voz de las propias autoras. En el mismo sentido, este libro responde a una nueva forma de relacionarse en los diferentes campos disciplinarios, a escala nacional e internacional, ya que, en un mismo volumen, se da igual validez a diferentes enfoques de la geografía feminista, cada uno respondiendo a su desarrollo, sus temáticas y sus tradiciones

Pesquisar com a escola

“não habitar a escola como meros espectadores, mas como ativos inquiridores, atuantes na sua construção cotidiana” (GALLO, MENDONÇA, 2020, p.15) As palavras escolhidas como epígrafe desta apresentação materializam o convite que desejamos fazer aos leitores deste livro. Enquanto pesquisadores, professores e estudantes não podemos agir como meros espectadores que apenas habitam o espaço da escola. Tal postura faria de nós apenas reprodutores de práticas historicamente enraizadas e naturalizadas no e pelo cotidiano escolar. No lugar disso, assumimos a postura de inquiridores da escola, porém não no sentido de julgadores do que se passa e do que se faz na escola. Tomar o lugar de ativos inquiridores da escola significa interrogar-se constantemente sobre as suas práticas, seus saberes, suas verdades e seus modos de ser no espaço/tempo contemporâneo. É esse o exercício que tentamos fazer neste livro e que convidamos os leitores a partilhar conosco. Um exercício que não parta da “escola em sua generalidade, mas se ocupe sempre de uma escola que pulsa, vive e ressoa em todos os seus habitantes” (GALLO, MENDONÇA, 2020, p. 14).

This book explores the spatial, material, and affective dimensions of solitude in the late medieval and early modern periods, a hitherto largely neglected topic. Its focus is on the dynamic qualities of “space” and “place”, which are here understood as being shaped, structured, and imbued with meaning through both social and discursive solitary practices such as reading, writing, studying, meditating, and praying. Individual chapters investigate the imageries and imaginaries of outdoor and indoor spaces and places associated with solitude and its practices and examine the ways in which the space of solitude was conceived of, imagined, and represented in the arts and in literature, from about 1300 to about 1800. Contributors include Oskar Bätschmann, Carla Benzan, Mette Birkedal Bruun, Dominic E. Delarue, Karl A.E. Enenkel, Christine Göttler, Agnès Guiderdoni, Christiane J. Hessler, Walter S. Melion, Raphaèle Preisinger, Bernd Roling, Paul Smith, Marie Theres Stauffer, Arnold A. Witte, and Steffen Zierholz.

Strategic Imaginations

Imaginations of female rule and the imaginative strategies of women rulers What is the gender of political power ? What happens to the history of sovereignty when we reconsider it from a gender perspective ? Political sovereignty has been a major theme in European thought from the very beginning of intellectual reflection on community. Philosophy and political theory, historiography, theology, and literature and the arts have, often in dialogue with one another, sought to represent or recalibrate notions of rule. Yet whatever covenant was imagined, sovereign rule has consistently been figured as a male prerogative While in-depth studies of historical women rulers have proliferated in the pas...

A través de la mirada crítica y disidente que el feminismo y el enfoque de género llevan implícitos, Maria Dolors Garcia-Ramon (la geógrafa española con mayor proyección internacional) demuestra la necesidad y la viabilidad de la renovación de los estudios socio-espaciales. Para Garcia-Ramon, el que las mujeres sean finalmente visibles en el paisaje geográfico proviene tanto de las transformaciones ocurridas en su entorno social como de los cambios que se han dado dentro de la disciplina geográfica. Partiendo de un f eminismo académico y militante, sus numerosas aportaciones, tanto teóricas como aplicadas, plantean cómo la transversalidad de la geografía del género permite reconsiderar las relaciones entre los espacios de la producción y los de la reproducción a la vez que posibilita cuestionar los límites de la geografía social, la cultural, la económica y la política. Este libro es un ensayo crítico sobre la autora y su obra que incluye, además, una selección de sus textos fundamentales y un artículo inédito.

Gender and Planning

To document and analyze the connection between gender and planning, the editors of this volume have assembled an interdisciplinary collection of influential essays by leading scholars. Contributors point to the ubiquitous single-family home, which prevents women from sharing tasks or pooling services. Similarly, they argue that public transportation routes are usually designed for the (male) worker's commute from home to the central city, and do not help the suburban dweller running errands. In addition to these practical considerations, many contributors offer theoretical perspectives on issues such as planning discourse and the construction of concepts of rationality.

Geography in America at the Dawn of the 21st Century surveys American geographers' current research in their specialty areas and tracks trends and innovations in the many subfields of geography. As such, it is both a 'state of the discipline' assessment and a topical reference. It includes an introduction by the editors and 47 chapters, each on a specific specialty. The authors of each chapter were chosen by their specialty group of the American Association of Geographers (AAG). Based on a process of review and revision, the chapters in this volume have become truly representative of the recent scholarship of American geographers. While it focuses on work since 1990, it additionally includes related prior work and work by non-American geographers. The initial Geography in America was published in 1989 and has become a benchmark reference of American geographical research during the 1980s. This latest volume is completely new and features a preface written by the eminent geographer, Gilbert White.
