En los últimos años la historiografía sobre mujeres ha devenido en un terreno fértil para el planteamiento de temas, preguntas y abordajes metodológicos diversos que alimentan las discusiones acerca del lugar de las mujeres y los feminismos en América Latina. Este libro Mujeres intelectuales… se suma a trabajos de reciente factura que plantean temas similares como la propuesta de Silvina Cormick (2022) que presenta un panorama de la región sobre el sujeto mujer-intelectual. En esta misma dirección apunta el libro coordinado por Margarita Vásquez Montaño (2024).

Historia de lo macro y lo micro en el famoso divorcio de Elena Garro y Octavio Paz entre 1959 y 1968. Por primera vez en la historiografía acerca del tema se publica el análisis en profundidad del expediente completo del divorcio promovido por Paz, en 1959, en Ciudad Juárez y sin el consentimiento de Garro; además del amparo directo contra la sentencia promovido por Garro en Ciudad de México entre 1967 y 1968. A nivel macro se explica el contexto histórico del patriarcal divorcio exprés de Chihuahua que, en su gran mayoría, fortaleció la autoridad de los varones e invisibilizó la voluntad de las mujeres. Dicha legislación polémica se aplicó entre 1933 y 1970, y propició que Ciudad Juárez se convirtiera en la meca del divorcio internacional, a donde acudían miles de norteamericanos a tramitar en forma expedita, y a petición de uno sólo de los cónyuges, sus respectivos divorcios. Por más de 30 años los divorcios de Chihuahua impactaron la historia judicial y demográfica de México. En el aspecto micro se contrasta la protección de la discreción y lo privado en el comportamiento de Paz durante su juicio de divorcio, y en oposición, la exhibición de lo personal en las actuaciones de Garro durante la promoción del amparo.

The subject of this review is "Ahmed, S. 2021. Complaint! Durham: Duke University Press". The paper introduces Sara Ahmed as a proponent of queer phenomenology and an academic activist involved professionally and personally in combating gender-based violence in academia, mainly by examining complaints as a subject of a phenomenological analysis as well as as a tool of an institutional critique. Ahmed's main research questions and conclusions are presented in the paper, and the aims of the author are critically reflected upon.

Este texto analiza las consecuencias de la presidencia de Javier Milei en el sistema científico y universitario argentino, centrando especialmente en el impacto sobre los estudios de género. La administración de Milei ha implementado significativos recortes presupuestarios al gasto público que afectan directamente la producción de conocimiento en Argentina y la educación universitaria. Estas medidas han provocado la paralización de numerosos proyectos científicos debido a la falta de financiación, han reducido el acceso a recursos esenciales en las universidades y una disminución sustancial en los ingresos de investigadores y educadores. El texto discute las implicaciones más amplias de estas políticas sobre las ciencias sociales y humanidades, especialmente vulnerables por la percepción de falta de retorno económico directo y sesgos ideológicos. La crítica se extiende a la tendencia global de socavar la libertad académica y el pensamiento crítico a través de restricciones financieras e ideológicas, enfatizando la necesidad de defender las contribuciones interdisciplinarias de los estudios de género dentro de la comunidad científica.

IntroductionCognition is defined as the mental activity or process of learning information and understanding through reason, experience, and the senses. In Sub-Saharan African nations like Ethiopia, such assessments of a pregnant mother's mental health during antenatal care are uncommon procedures. Instead, there is a greater focus on the physical well-being of the woman and her fetus. As a result, this study aimed to evaluate the cognitive deficits and related factors in a pregnant women attending an antenatal care service.MethodsThis hospital-based cross-sectional study included 415 pregnant women who were receiving antenatal care at Dilla University Referral Hospital in Dilla, Gedeo Zone, Ethiopia. In this study, respondents were chosen using systematic random sampling, and study participants were interviewed using administered questions to gather pertinent data. This study used the OSLO Social Support Scale, the Alcohol, Smoking, and Substance Involvement Screening Test, and the Mini-Mental Status Examination to assess the social support, cognitive status, and current substance use history of a respondent. Descriptive statistics including frequencies, graphs, and percentages were used to describe the results. A logistic regression analysis was conducted to determine the connection between independent factors and the outcome variable at a 95 percent confidence level and p < 0.05.ResultAmong all respondents who came for antenatal care visits, only 24 (5.8%) were unmarried (single, divorced, widowed). The mean age of respondents was 26 years old and 155 (37.3%) had attended secondary school. Variables such as strong social support [0.11 (0.03–0.23), p < 0.02], being a follower of orthodox religion [0.24 (0.12–0.39), p < 0.04], ≥5,000 Ethiopian birr monthly income [0.28 (0.17–0.48), p < 0.02], age >26 years old [1.23 (1.14–2.54), p < 0.04], unplanned pregnancy [2.78 (1.45–4.32), p < 0.02], and rural residence [3.90 (2.23–7.34), p < 0.04] were significantly associated with cognitive impairment at 95% confidence interval and a p-value <0.05.ConclusionThis study found that pregnant women who attended antenatal care experienced a significant reduction in cognitive disorders. Additionally, this study revealed adjustable factors such as unwanted pregnancy, social support, and religiosity. It is preferable to check a pregnant woman's cognitive condition at antenatal services and to follow-up on each additional visit.

Literature is a medium to picture the environments of human familial life. By attracting language and to wonder the readers; explaining in the short form of witty language style is important and they are Poems. Modern Poetry has been accepted by everyone and has made the period of reading enjoyable which was only for the Pandits in those days. Since the beginning of the twentieth century, if a woman starts to speak for herself, society has been concerned about the idea it is not beautiful for a woman. Though women are also equal in human society she has been denied of basic rights. Today, social emancipation is the movement of speaking and writing in many aspects about untold problems. Feminism is wide-ranging and is observed by all as a movement coming out of the creation of thoughts. From the social origin, women have been suppressed in all aspects as slaves which are realized by feminists. From time immemorial male-dominated societies refused rights to women, and for redeeming the women of slavery of Bharati and Bharathidasan wrote energetic and rational poems that were admired by the world in the 19th and 20th centuries. Starting the revolution by them, it is a new exhilaration in today’s position and a radical contribution of poetry with a liberated feeling in language structuring the in-depth meaning, poetic language of women raised from the deep mind, experience, shuddering others feelings, women creators (poets), women who are facing the pain of complications. Salma is a modern Tamil poet who writes for the liberty of women. In her creations, she handled the language efficiently with full radical vigor and framed to and took about the pains of women. This paper exhibits select poems of Salma with the chosen themes.

Colonial hegemony was retained in the South Indian plantations of Kanan Devan Hills Plantations Limited, where the workers belonged to marginalized classes. The landless employees were given housing facilities, and this compelled them to remain there for generations despite poor wages. These uneducated and geographically secluded people found it difficult to come out of the plantation labyrinth, and the labour acts or land legislation acts were not much help. In 2015, around 5,000 women workers called “Pombilai Orumai” led a successful strike for a wage increase. The most remarkable aspect of this was the disassociation with political parties and trade unions and the solidarity of women workers despite all odds.

This article addresses a redefinition of the Gothic genre as a “Red Gothic,” a term that I coin to define the visceral traits of literary and artistic productions of the “horror” genre in Latin America. I center on the works of Mariana Enríquez, placing them in dialogue with those of visual artists Ana Mendieta and Teresa Margolles. This is an initial proposal for further discussion on political uses of the Gothic in Latin America. In response to the violence and discrimination produced by different implementations of Neoliberalism in the region, a growing field of artists and writers work with Gothic imagery in a flexible, hybrid way to create new representations of “monsters” and “cannibals.” By looking at feminist critiques on post-humanism and cyborg identities (Rosi Braidotti, Donna Haraway), I propose that “Red Gothic” embodies those gaps and erasures of different populations that still claim a place in Latin American societies.

Introducción El concepto de empoderamiento femenino se utiliza con una frecuencia cada vez mayor en el campo de la enfermería, concretamente por las matronas, apareciendo especialmente en el ámbito de la salud perinatal de la mano de ideas como la humanización del parto o la prevención de la violencia. Objetivos Analizar la producción científica sobre empoderamiento femenino en el ámbito perinatal. Metodología: Estudio bibliométrico de la producción científica en las revistas Birth, Women and Birth y Midwifery. El análisis de datos se llevó a cabo a partir de su clasificación y categorización. Además, se definieron conceptualmente, enunciaron y codificaron las categorías. Resultados y discusión Se identificaron un total de 341 artículos, de los cuales 44 se seleccionaron por su relevancia. Sin embargo, solo 13 cumplían con los criterios de inclusión del estudio. A pesar de que los artículos seleccionados tenían diferentes objetivos y analizaban el empoderamiento femenino desde distintas perspectivas, fue posible realizar un acercamiento gracias a la clasificación y categorización del contenido de los mismos. Parece ser que son aspectos claves del empoderamiento femenino: la confianza entre la matrona y los pacientes; sentirse escuchada por los profesionales de la salud; aceptar el dolor; el soporte físico y psicológico por personas cercanas o profesionales; los cuidados personalizados; la cercanía y la empatía de los profesionales; la privacidad y la comunicación como elementos clave. Conclusiones El empoderamiento femenino en el ámbito de la salud perinatal no es un tema tratado con amplitud en las revistas estudiadas, ya que no existe una definición unívoca del mismo. Sin embargo, podemos establecer como aspectos clave del empoderamiento femenino la confianza entre la matrona y las gestantes, la escucha activa, la aceptación del dolor, la presencia de soporte físico y mental, la personalización de los cuidados, la empatía y cercanía de los profesionales, la privacidad, y la comunicación como elemento clave empoderador.

Este artigo discute os desafios à representação política de mulheres na Câmara dos Deputados. Argumento que à demanda pela eleição de mais mulheres deve ser agregada a discussão sobre as regras e procedimentos que regulam sua atuação, uma vez que essas podem limitá-la ou torná-la mais efetiva do ponto de vista da representação de mulheres. Avaliando a distribuição de recursos legislativos (vagas em comissões legislativas e presidências de comissões e da Mesa Diretora) entre legisladoras e legisladores, pode-se constatar que essa ocorre de forma desigual. Apesar disso, destaca-se positivamente a criação da Secretaria da Mulher, instância que pode potencializar a atuação das legisladoras, mitigando os efeitos decorrentes dessas constituírem uma “pequena minoria”. Por fim, argumento que o desafio de eleger mais mulheres deve se articular à necessidade de garantir que às mulheres já eleitas sejam assegurados recursos que potencializem mudanças que garantam maior presença de mulheres nos espaços de poder e decisão.

For nearly 50 years, social researchers have chronicled the continued stigmatization of feminism. Past research has evidenced the reluctance of individuals to adopt a feminist identity, despite their agreement with feminist ideals—otherwise known as the Feminist Paradox. The current study drew from a diverse sample (N = 355) and asked participants to provide their definition of feminism. Using a mixed methods approach, the current study aimed to understand how thematic differences in participants’ definitions of feminism were associated with adopting a feminist identity. Participants who emphasized the importance of integrating intersectionality in defining feminism were more likely to identify as a feminist. Conversely, those who defined feminism as exclusively attending to the needs of women were less likely to identify as feminists. The current study found very little negativity towards feminism, by feminists and non-feminists alike. As such, the current study may be indicative of a new Feminist Paradox: one that is more heavily influenced by the incorporation of intersectional politics in addition to negativity or stigmatization. Implications for the broader context of feminist identity and how feminist objectives are represented within mainstream perceptions are discussed.

Identidades de género y cambio social

Begoña Pernas

Resumen El artículo recorre la historia de la construcción de la vida privada desde el siglo XVI, con la intención de mostrar que esta esfera está unida, por un lado, a la diferencia entre mujeres y varones, es decir a la construcción del sexo y del género, y por otra, a los espacios residenciales y urbanos tal como los hemos conocido en Occidente. El recorrido permite observar cómo la identidad sexual y la creación de la privacidad son ambas fundamentales para el triunfo de la moral, la idea de la buena vida y la hegemonía de la clase burguesa. Pero también desvela que esa misma cultura se encuentra en descomposición, sin que tengamos elementos suficientes para analizar qué clase de cultura la ha sustituido y cuáles son sus efectos sobre la vida cotidiana y sobre la vida colectiva. Con el triunfo de la esfera privada sobre la pública desaparece, paradójicamente, tanto la idea de intimidad como la idea de política. Con ellas termina también la diferenciación urbana y quizás se hace irrelevante la diferencia entre mujeres y hombres, mientras otros espacios y otras identidades toman el relevo. Palabras clave: vida privada, hogar, género, política, ciudad, suburbio, cultura burguesa. Abstract The article looks at the history of the construction of «private life» since the sixteenth century in order to demonstrate that this sphere is linked, on the one hand, to the difference between men and women, i.e. the construction of sex and gender, and, on the other, h to the residential and urban spaces familiar to Western readers. This historical overview enables us to observe how sexual identity and the creation of «privacy» are both essential to the triumph of moral notions, ideas about the «good life» and the hegemony of the bourgeoisie. It also shows that this culture is in decline, although we do not have sufficient information to analyze what kind of culture is replacing it, or the effects of this replacement on everyday and collective life. With the triumph of the private sphere over the public, both the idea of intimacy and the idea of politics paradoxically disappear. With their disappearance, urban differentiation ends, and perhaps the difference between men and women becomes irrelevant as it is superceded by other spaces and other identities. Keywords: private life, home, gender, politics, city, suburb, bourgeois culture.
