El libro de referencia de la historia del feminismo. ¿Quiénes eran las sufragistas? ¿De dónde sale el feminismo radical? ¿Por qué se habla de marxismo y feminismo como de un matrimonio mal avenido? ¿Por qué el feminismo ha sido vilipendiado y ridiculizado? ¿Por qué las feministas han sido tratadas de "marimachos", feas o mujeres sexualmente insatisfechas? ¿Cómo y dónde surge la expresión "violencia de género"? ¿En qué consiste la masculinidad tradicional? A partir de estos interrogantes, y otros muchos, Nuria Varela repasa tres siglos de hacer y deshacer el mundo, de alumbrar teorías, propuestas y liderazgos fascinantes, y narra la aventura de una agitación social que ningún otro movimiento ha conseguido mantener durante tanto tiempo.

Throughout my childhood, my grandmother Yasmina, who was illiterate and grew up in a harem, repeated that to travel is the best way to learn and to empower yourself. "When a woman decides to use her wings, she takes big risks," she would tell me, but she was convinced that if you didn't use them, it hurt.... So recalls Fatema Mernissi at the outset of her mesmerizing new book. Of all the lessons she learned from her grandmother -- whose home was, after all, a type of prison -- the most central was that the opportunity to cross boundaries was a sacred privilege. Indeed, in journeys both physical and mental, Mernissi has spent virtually all of her life traveling -- determined to "use her wings" and to renounce her gender's alleged legacy of powerlessness. Bursting with the vitality of Mernissi's personality and of her rich heritage, Scheherazade Goes West reveals the author's unique experiences as a liberated, independent Moroccan woman faced with the peculiarities and unexpected encroachments of Western culture. Her often surprising discoveries about the conditions of and attitudes toward women around the world -- and the exquisitely embroidered amalgam of clear-eyed autobiography and dazzling meta-fiction by which she relates those assorted discoveries -- add up to a deliciously wry, engagingly cosmopolitan, and deeply penetrating narrative. In her previous bestselling works, Mernissi -- widely recognized as the world's greatest living Koranic scholar and Islamic sociologist -- has shed unprecedented light on the lives of women in the Middle East. Now, as a writer and scholarly veteran of the high-wire act of straddling disparate societies, she trains her eyes on the female culture of the West. For her book's inspired central metaphor, Mernissi turns to the ancient Islamic tradition of oral storytelling, illuminating her grandmother's feminized, subversive, and highly erotic take on Scheherazade's wife-preserving tales from The Arabian Nights -- and then ingeniously applying them to her own lyrically embellished personal narrative. Interwoven with vivid ruminations on her childhood, her education, and her various international travels are the author's piquant musings on a range of deeply embedded societal conditions that add up, Mernissi argues, to a veritable "Western harem." A provocative and lively challenge to the common assumption that women have it so much better in the West than anywhere else in the world, Mernissi's book is an entrancing and timely look at the way we live here and now. By inspiring us to reconsider even the most commonplace aspects of our culture with fresh eyes and a healthy dose of suspicion, Scheherazade Goes West offers an invigorating, candid, and entertaining new perspective on the themes and ideas to which Betty Friedan first turned us on nearly forty years ago.

Las mujeres Carmona Cameron no sólo se distinguen por su belleza entre la sociedad ponceña de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, sino que además cultivan el ingenio necesario para enfrentar prejuicios sociales, familiares y religiosos en la búsqueda de una fórmula de domesticidad y "amor" en la cual, en realidad, no se ven reflejadas. Los obstáculos son en especial duros para Alda, la priomogénita de la familia, quien además deberá vencer las dudas filosóficas contra el amor impuestas por un marido frío cuando no ausente. En la lucha por la plenitud, su propia hija, Ainé, también se verá obligada a confrontar planteamientos rigurosamente nihilistas sembrados en el seno familiar. No extraña la simpatía por la actitud emprendedora de las mujeres en esta novela de la periodista Ada Torres Toro, pues también la encontramos en Absenta dulce como una propuesta de liberación espiritual y económica; sin embargo, queda para el lector la tarea de reflexionar sobre las implicaciones de colocar junto al sustantivo Amores el adjetivo innecesarios.

Animal Rights Human Rights written by David Alan Nibert and has been published by Rowman & Littlefield this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2002 with Nature categories.
This accessible and cutting-edge work offers a new look at the history of western "civilization," one that brings into focus the interrelated suffering of oppressed humans and other animals. Nibert argues persuasively that throughout history the exploitation of other animals has gone hand in hand with the oppression of women, people of color, and other oppressed groups. He maintains that the oppression both of humans and of other species of animals is inextricably tangled within the structure of social arrangements. Nibert asserts that human use and mistreatment of other animals are not natural and do little to further the human condition. Nibert's analysis emphasizes the economic and elite-driven character of prejudice, discrimination, and institutionalized repression of humans and other animals. His examination of the economic entanglements of the oppression of human and other animals is supplemented with an analysis of ideological forces and the use of state power in this sociological expose of the grotesque uses of the oppressed, past and present. Nibert suggests that the liberation of devalued groups of humans is unlikely in a world that uses other animals as fodder for the continual growth and expansion of transnational corporations and, conversely, that animal liberation cannot take place when humans continue to be exploited and oppressed.

Pioneras y transgresoras: mujeres en las artes en Puerto Rico recoge ensayos y reproduce obras de varias artistas de Puerto Rico que se destacaron por ser precursoras en la práctica artística y en la enseñanza del arte. El proyecto surge de una serie de conferencias magistrales impartidas entre marzo de 2020 y septiembre de 2021, auspiciada por la Liga de Arte de San Juan y la Fundación Puertorriqueña de las Humanidades.Desde diferentes miradas y posiciones estas mujeres artistas quebrantaron normas y transgredieron su entorno. Introdujeron estilos pictóricos originales dentro del contexto del arte en Puerto Rico. Fueron mujeres independientes, viajeras por motivos de estudio y deseos de explorar el mundo. Las historias oficiales no han documentado sus aportaciones con toda la atención que merecen. Los museos tampoco les han dedicado todo el espacio que ameritan, y algunas de sus obras más importantes permanecen en sus depósitos. Fueron nuestras Maestras: Luisa Géigel Brunet, Luisina Ordóñez Sabater, María Luisa Penne de Castillo, Cecilia Orta Allende y Ana Bassó Bruno. El libro también incorpora al Colectivo Moriviví, representante de una nueva generación de artistas que rompen con los esquemas del arte tradicional y se lanzan a crear con medios novedosos, particularmente a través del arte público. Deciden ignorar los museos y apropiarse de las paredes del vecindario, de la ciudad para plasmar sus imágenes comprometidas con las luchas de las mujeres y de la comunidad por mayor justicia. Su consigna: el 'artivismo'.Confiamos en que esta publicación contribuya a documentar las aportaciones de estas artistas y estimule más investigaciones y exposiciones sobre ellas.

An analysis of contemporary violence as the new commodity of today's hyper-consumerist stage of capitalism. “Death has become the most profitable business in existence.” —from Gore Capitalism Written by the Tijuana activist intellectual Sayak Valencia, Gore Capitalism is a crucial essay that posits a decolonial, feminist philosophical approach to the outbreak of violence in Mexico and, more broadly, across the global regions of the Third World. Valencia argues that violence itself has become a product within hyper-consumerist neoliberal capitalism, and that tortured and mutilated bodies have become commodities to be traded and utilized for profit in an age of impunity and governmental austerity. In a lucid and transgressive voice, Valencia unravels the workings of the politics of death in the context of contemporary networks of hyper-consumption, the ups and downs of capital markets, drug trafficking, narcopower, and the impunity of the neoliberal state. She looks at the global rise of authoritarian governments, the erosion of civil society, the increasing violence against women, the deterioration of human rights, and the transformation of certain cities and regions into depopulated, ghostly settings for war. She offers a trenchant critique of masculinity and gender constructions in Mexico, linking their misogynist force to the booming trade in violence. This book is essential reading for anyone seeking to analyze the new landscapes of war. It provides novel categories that allow us to deconstruct what is happening, while proposing vital epistemological tools developed in the convulsive Third World border space of Tijuana.

"Un coquí de Boriquén con los Reyes a Belén" es la historia de un coquí mágico que acompañó a una niña puertorriqueña a la primera Navidad. En agradecimiento, los Reyes le prometen encontrar anualmente a cada niño de su país, en o fuera de Puerto Rico, siempre que los llame el cantar de un coquí. Dirigido a todos los niños puertorriqueños, y en particular a los de la diáspora, el libro le explicará a los más chicos, con un cuento divertido en rimas, cómo los Reyes logran encontrar su hogar, vivan ellos en San Juan o Nueva York, en Orlando o Juana Díaz. Mantenga viva la tradición de los Tres Reyes para esta y futuras generaciones de niños boricuas. El libro contiene el texto de la historia en español y traducido al inglés. /// "From Boriquén to Bethlehem: A Coquí and the Three Wise Men" is the story of a magical coquí (a tree frog native to Puerto Rico), who traveled with a young Puerto Rican girl and the Magi to the first Christmas. In gratitude, the Kings promise the girl to yearly visit the children of Puerto Rico, and to find them wherever they may be if they hear the call of a coquí. Geared toward Puerto Rican children, and in particular those living outside of the island, mainly in the U.S., the fun rhyming story explains how the Magi are able to find children's homes, be it in San Juan or in New York, in Orlando or in Juana Díaz. Keep the Three Kings tradition alive for present and future generations. The book contains the text of the story in Spanish and in English translation.
