De nacionalidad argentina, aunque su carrera es íntegramente italiana, Mario Fenelli se mantiene como una incógnita, una silueta fantasmal que parece esforzarse por recogerse siempre en un segundo plano. Sin embargo, está inmortalizado en los créditos de los films que escribió y, ante todo, como una presencia constante en la vida de su gran amigo Manuel Puig: permanentemente nombrado en su correspondencia y coautor junto con él de dos argumentos cinematográficos inéditos en italiano. Escritor, cineasta y custodio de las claves para pensar en la mítica transición del cine a la literatura de Puig, este artículo se propone rescatar a Mario Fenelli del olvido, y la confusión a los que su retraimiento lo condenó, y echar luz sobre su figura a través de su archivo.

El artículo analiza la relevancia del concepto de visibilidad de los sujetos-cuerpos marginales en los contextos político, cultural y social, centrándose en los textos políticos de Gabriela Mistral. Se examina cómo las prácticas y discursos hegemónicos reorganizan la marginalidad sin permitir una transformación real en las relaciones de poder. Utilizando el marco teórico de la interseccionalidad y dialogando con autoras como bell hooks, Judith Butler, Sara Ahmed y Angela Davis, se profundiza en la crítica de Mistral hacia las formas superficiales de reconocimiento que perpetúan las desigualdades.Mistral enfatiza la necesidad de una participación auténtica desde los espacios marginales, evitando que los sujetos-cuerpos marginados deban adaptarse a prácticas hegemónicas para ser visibilizados. Sus escritos políticos, como “El carácter de la mujer chilena”, “Organización de las mujeres” y “Voto femenino”, abogan por una visibilidad que reconozca y valore las diferencias entre las mujeres, promoviendo una organización colectiva que desafíe las estructuras de poder existentes. El artículo discute cómo Mistral anticipa debates contemporáneos sobre interseccionalidad y visibilidad, señalando que la inclusión simbólica sin cambios estructurales profundos es insuficiente para alcanzar la justicia social. Se exploran ejemplos actuales que evidencian la vigencia de sus ideas, como la participación de mujeres indígenas en movimientos feministas y la visibilidad de personas transgénero en América Latina, destacando cómo la marginalidad es frecuentemente absorbida por narrativas hegemónicas. En concreto, la obra de Gabriela Mistral proporciona un marco teórico valioso para comprender y criticar las dinámicas de poder que perpetúan la marginalidad. Su insistencia en una visibilidad interseccional y en la transformación de las estructuras hegemónicas es esencial para las luchas políticas contemporáneas. El artículo subraya la necesidad de promover un cambio estructural que posibilite una transformación significativa en las dinámicas de poder, fomentando la equidad y la justicia social desde y para los espacios marginales.

BackgroundPoint of care hemoglobin meters play key roles in increasing access to anemia screening in antenatal care especially in settings with limited access to laboratories. We aimed to determine the diagnostic accuracy of a non-invasive spot-check hemoglobin (SpHb) meter, Masimo Rad-67® Pulse CO-Oximeter®, in the diagnosis of anemia in pregnant women attending antenatal care clinics in Kilifi, Kenya.MethodsThis was a diagnostic accuracy study that retrospectively evaluated SpHb against a validated reference standard of laboratory assessed hemoglobin (Lab Hb) by a SYSMEX XN-330 automated hematology analyzer. The study was nested within a prospective pregnancy cohort study that recruited unselected pregnant women from antenatal care clinics in two public hospitals in Kilifi County, coastal Kenya. Records with both SpHb and Lab Hb were selected from pregnancy visits between May 2021 and December 2022. Linear regression and Bland-Altman analysis were performed to compare the two tests and diagnostic accuracy parameters obtained for the diagnosis of anemia.ResultsA total of 2,975 records (from 2,203 unique participants), with paired SpHb and Lab Hb were analyzed. Linear regression showed a significant but weak positive correlation, a proportional bias of 0.44 (95% CI 0.41–0.47) and a constant of 7.59 (95% CI 7.30–7.87, p < 0.001). The median bias was 1.70 g/dl, with limits of agreement of −0.80 to 4.20. SpHb tended to be higher than Lab Hb on the low hemoglobin range but lower than Lab Hb on the high hemoglobin range. The sensitivity of SpHb in detecting anemia was 18.66%. Prevalence, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive values were 46.37%, 96.77%, 83.33%, and 57.92% respectively.ConclusionOverall, SpHb by Masimo Rad-67® Pulse CO-Oximeter® did not accurately identify pregnant women with anemia and many cases would be missed. We would not recommend its use in antenatal care settings.

Sexual harassment is an issue in which feminists are usually thought to be on the plaintiff’s side. But in 1993—amid considerable attention from the national academic community—Jane Gallop, a prominent feminist professor of literature, was accused of sexual harassment by two of her women graduate students. In Feminist Accused of Sexual Harassment , Gallop tells the story of how and why she was charged with sexual harassment and what resulted from the accusations. Weaving together memoir and theoretical reflections, Gallop uses her dramatic personal experience to offer a vivid analysis of current trends in sexual harassment policy and to pose difficult questions regarding teaching and sex, feminism and knowledge. Comparing “still new” feminism—as she first encountered it in the early 1970s—with the more established academic discipline that women’s studies has become, Gallop makes a case for the intertwining of learning and pleasure. Refusing to acquiesce to an imperative of silence that surrounds such issues, Gallop acknowledges—and describes—her experiences with the eroticism of learning and teaching. She argues that antiharassment activism has turned away from the feminism that created it and suggests that accusations of harassment are taking aim at the inherent sexuality of professional and pedagogic activity rather than indicting discrimination based on gender—that antiharassment has been transformed into a sensationalist campaign against sexuality itself. Feminist Accused of Sexual Harassment offers a direct and challenging perspective on the complex and charged issues surrounding the intersection of politics, sexuality, feminism, and power. Gallop’s story and her characteristically bold way of telling it will be compelling reading for anyone interested in these issues and particularly to anyone interested in the ways they pertain to the university.

El objetivo de este estudio es conocer en profundidad la relación de amistad entre Concha de Albornoz (1900-1972) y Rosa Chacel (1898-1994), a través del análisis del corpus epistolar conformado por las cartas que Albornoz envió a Chacel en el curso de cuatro décadas (1936- 1971). La enorme fisura espaciotemporal que abrió el destierro en las biografías de las dos pensadoras, junto con las dificultades propias del exilio, se reflejan en una correspondencia constantemente interrumpida por largos períodos de silencio. Nuestra investigación propone una interpretación de estos silencios problemáticos, por carecer de una causalidad explícita, a través de una lectura "completa", que incluya tanto los tiempos de escritura como los de ausencia de correspondencia. Nuestra interpretación tiene en cuenta el carácter específico del silencio en cada una de las corresponsales. Para entender las interrupciones epistolares, nos han resultado de ayuda el concepto derridiano de diferencia y las reflexiones teóricas de Steiner en torno al silencio en literatura. Sobre esta base, nuestra lectura de las cartas diferencia lo que denominaremos el "silencio introspectivo" de Rosa Chacel del "silencio resignado" de Concha de Albornoz.

In response to recent protests against controversial guest speakers, many Canadian universities have implemented new policies that conflate academic freedom and freedom of speech. The resultant free speech policies often protect speakers regardless of the content of their speech; this paper discusses the importance of barring speech that normalizes acts of harm.

Neste artigo, analisamos a construção do empoderamento das mulheres em um grupo de ciclismo urbano do Sertão Pernambucano. Realizamos uma etnografia durante um ano por meio de observação participante, de entrevistas em profundidade e no acompanhamento diário das atividades, eventos e mídias sociais de um grupo de ciclismo liderado por mulheres. E incluímos neste grupo os homens que participavam ativamente das atividades e eventos realizados. Os marcos teóricos que fundamentaram as análises foram as perspectivas relacional e performática dos estudos de gênero. Concluímos que as experiências de empoderamento das mulheres estiveram ancoradas nas vivências de fisicalidade, bem como nas relações de solidariedade e companheirismo experimentadas pelos/as participantes na prática da modalidade em grupo.

The aim of the project «Multi-Agency Response for Reporting on Gender-Based Violence in Maternal Health Services» is to improve the capacity to detect and refer cases of gender-based violence during pregnancy in the maternal health services of the participating countries: Romania, Spain, France, Germany and Austria. Materials and Method To fulfill this purpose, interviews, legislative analysis at both national and international level, training of health professionals, collection of data, comparative analysis and dissemination of results have been carried out. Results It has been observed that pregnancy is a particularly vulnerable stage in a woman’s life in which gender-based violence sometimes starts or worsens. Due to the characteristics of follow-up appointments, maternal health services are considered a particularly useful resource for early detection. Despite this circumstance, the lack of training in gender-based violence of health workers reduces the chances of detection and referral of cases. Conclusions The RESPONSE project has tried to respond to the lack of information and training of health and social-sanitary workers by developing key tools for the detection of symptoms and signs of violence, strengthening the collaboration of teams within and outside the health field and reinforcing the capacities of the participants when it comes to asking their patients about gender based violence and responding adequately to their demands.

How to assess quality has become one of the central concerns for contemporary research, not least because of the proliferation of research assessment systems around the globe. Concomitant with this has been the growing attention to factors that compromise the credibility of assessment, especially gender, ethnic, racial and geopolitical bias. In this paper I analyse how lab leaders and research managers in the natural sciences specifically construct excellence and relatedly the demands of the research profession, and how gender bias plays out in these imaginaries. The material for the study comes primarily from two highly successful public research institutes of the Czech Academy of Sciences and specifically from individual and group interviews with lab leaders and research managers on topics of research governance, assessment, and quality. The focus is on the natural sciences because the discipline has driven the introduction of research assessment in the country as well as research and innovation reforms more broadly since the new millennium. Building on the distinction between the logic of choice and the logic of care developed by Annemarie Mol (2008), I explore the limits of individual choice for conceiving excellence and the gendered outcomes it produces.

Este artículo se centra en el análisis de las trayectorias diferenciales de las mujeres en el sector económico que produce software en el Uruguay para reconstruir los núcleos conceptuales a partir del cual se analizan las relaciones y desigualdades de género. Más específicamente, se problematiza el concepto de autonomía el cual es concebido como un aspecto central del trabajo en el sector a partir del cual se estudia la desigual y desventajosa inserción laboral de las mujeres con respecto a los varones en el mismo. Mediante una estrategia de investigación cualitativa basada en entrevistas semi-estructuradas a trabajadoras-es en la industria de producción de software, se analizan las vivencias y percepciones de mujeres que sortean o deciden lidiar con barreras tanto objetivas y visibles, como subjetivas e invisibles ligadas al desempeño laboral en un ámbito fuertemente masculinizado. El artículo se propone explicar desde el campo específico de la sociología del trabajo, algunas dinámicas y mecanismos que profundizan la reflexión en torno a la problemática del género y las desigualdades derivadas del mismo en el mundo del trabajo desde la revisión de viejos conceptos mediante la adopción de nuevas perspectivas conceptuales.

Este artículo examina la incorporación de la mujer rural al mercado laboral y sus efectos por un lado en las estructuras y dinámicas familiares y, por otro, en el mundo de las significaciones que mujeres rurales construyen en torno al trabajo, a los patrones de organización familiar y a la compatibilización trabajo/familia. El análisis combina una perspectiva estructural, a través de datos cuantitativos obtenidos de estadísticas oficiales y una encuesta a una muestra de mujeres rurales; y una perspectiva cualitativa, centrada en los significados construidos por ellas, información obtenida a través de grupos de discusión y entrevistas. Nuestra hipótesis postula que la creciente incorporación de la mujer rural al mundo del trabajo instala nuevas percepciones sobre los roles de género al interior de la familia y en la sociedad y nuevas concepciones de lo femenino, constituyendo así un factor central en la construcción de "nuevos" modelos familiares rurales y en la negociación de arreglos familiares más igualitarios.

Na sociedade medieval portuguesa, a prática do concubinato clerical representou uma ameaça ao celibato e ao casamento religioso, instituições fundamentais para o projeto de ordenamento social defendido pela Igreja e pela monarquia. Nos séculos XIV e XV, as leis civis definiram o concubinato clerical como um crime. No entanto, havia a possibilidade de absolvição ou diminuição da pena por meio das Cartas de Perdão, importante instrumento jurídico para compreender as representações de gênero que mediaram o olhar da justiça, forjando a imagem das concubinas como pecadoras e criminosas.<br>In the medieval Portuguese society, the practice of clerical concubinage represented a threat to celibacy and religious marriages. These were fundamental institutions to the social ordination project defended by the Church and the monarchy. In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries the civil laws defined clerical concubinage as crime. However, there was the possibility of acquittal or sentence reduction by means of Letters of Pardon, an important legal tool to understand the gender representations that have mediated the eye of justice, forging the image of concubines as sinners and criminals.

The article reads Lin Huiyin’s short story “In Ninety-Nine Degree Heat” (1934) in relation to the context of 1930s China, as an innovative literary work which combines elements from both the Chinese and the Western traditions, and as a text which informs readers not only of the problematic of class and gender issues in 1930s Chinese society but also of the context of the liuxuesheng who returns to China –like Lin Huiyin herself. Focusing on questions like otherness, representation, and encounters, the essay analyzes how the episodic narrative structure of Lin’s short story echoes social and representational discourses in post-May Fourth China, at the same time that it explores issues such as social inequality, otherness and alienation, which were crucial to the liuxuesheng, and which reflect Lin’s own experience as a returned and alienated liuxuesheng at the time.
