Latin America's New Left and the Politics of Gender

Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on the unprecedented rise of leftist democratically elected governments in Latin America, this book explores their relationship with women's movements that support them. It specifically examines Nicaragua as a critical case, addressing a largely overlooked question in contemporary literature: how these governments have engaged with and promoted women's interests. The findings have broader implications for understanding the dynamics of political support and gender issues across Latin America, appealing to scholars in Latin American studies, gender studies, and political science.
