- Description
- Women enslaved in the Americas came to bear highly gendered reputations among whites—as “scheming Jezebels,” ample and devoted “mammies,” or suffering victims of white male brutality and sexual abuse—that revealed more about the psychology of enslaving than about the courage and creativity of the women enslaved. These images of modern New World slavery contrast with the equally expressive virtual invisibility of the women enslaved in the Old—concealed in harems, represented to meddling colonial rulers as “wives” and “nieces,” taken into African families and kin-groups in subtlely nuanced fashion.

- Description
- This volume provides a picture of the current state of feminist sociological gender and women's studies research in four regions of the world--Africa, Asia, Latin America/Caribbean, and Europe. The introductory essay to each region explains how social science research on women and/or gender issues has been shaped by economics, politics, and culture, and by trends that are simultaneously local, regional and global. Then each regional section includes up to chapters on gender research in specific countries that represent the region's diversity and cover the major trends that have emerged over time, as well as the relationship of key research questions to feminist activism and women’s or gender studies.The editors illustrate this new wave of gender scholarship with samples of research articles from additional countries in the region, that cover a wide range of topics, such as work, sexuality, masculinities, childcare and family issues, religion, violence, law and gender policies. Finally, this volume provides scholars with extensive bibliographies and a listing of web sites for women’s and gender research centers in 85 countries.

- Description
- The purpose of this paper is to present an overview of the social and institutional changes unfolding in Latin America and the Caribbean. The paper postulates that the new modes of democratic governance manifest themselves in the rules and regulations that govern the relationships between social actors in various scenarios, in particular between the State and society and between the State, the market and the family. These changes also create opportunities to transform gender roles. At the same time, this paper shows how the shift in relationships between men and women increases the foundations for the support of democratic governance by ensuring that high-level discussions and policy-making effectively mainstream the results achieved and problems overcome in the area of gender inequity.

- Description
- The goal of the Bank's Women in Development (WID) Policy is to improve the socio-economic situation of women in Latin America and the Caribbean, and to improve the performance of Bank projects by enhancing women's contributions. To achieve these goals, the 1991 WID Action Plan developed an integrative strategy, whereby gender issues would be incorporated into all Bank operations to promote the equal participation of women in project activities, and to ensure that women, as well as men, benefit from these projects. This study contains background information on women in the Latin American and Caribbean workforce, issues, lessons learned and recommendations regarding women's participation in training programs and finally addressing gender issues throughout the project cycle.
