Book Description
Este importante libro nos propone una mirada y un posicionamiento que invita al debate y a la discusión sobre lo que significa para las mujeres inscribirse en el círculo de la violencia. Al mismo tiempo, emerge como una sugerente lectura teórica y política, utilizando algunos conceptos de las teorías de género para brindar una comprensión del fenómeno abordado. Su escritura aparece como un interesante entramado de relato histórico, testimonial y ensayístico. Por eso, desde nuestra óptica el gesto de la autora semeja, parafraseando su texto, “una mujer en armas”, una mujer que desafía el sentido común y desde las armas de la escritura va construyendo un universo de sentidos “otros”, de “diferencia irreductible” -como dice Matellart-, de “alternativa simbólica”. Desde los objetivos de la Colección Cátedra Género de la UNESCO, este libro contribuye a la ampliación de los horizontes sobre la posición y condición de las mujeres chilenas –y por extensión latinoamericanas- y un primer paso en la constitución de un corpus reflexivo sobre la experiencia de las mujeres militares o de las guerrilleras, pero sobre todo de un tinglado desde el cual interrogar e interrogarnos sobre los modos en que se juegan vida y muerte, violencia y afecto, no desde una oposición fundante sino desde un campo movedizo, ambiguo y oscilante; un campo que busca de manera urgente su definición y su inserción dentro de la economía simbólica de las relaciones de género y poder.

Book Description
Patrick Barr-Melej here illuminates modern Chilean history with an unprecedented chronicle and reassessment of the sixties and seventies. During a period of tremendous political and social strife that saw the election of a Marxist president followed by the terror of a military coup in 1973, a youth-driven, transnationally connected counterculture smashed onto the scene. Contributing to a surging historiography of the era's Latin American counterculture, Barr-Melej draws on media and firsthand interviews in documenting the intertwining of youth and counterculture with discourses rooted in class and party politics. Focusing on "hippismo" and an esoteric movement called Poder Joven, Barr-Melej challenges a number of prevailing assumptions about culture, politics, and the Left under Salvador Allende's "Chilean Road to Socialism." While countercultural attitudes toward recreational drug use, gender roles and sexuality, rock music, and consumerism influenced many youths on the Left, the preponderance of leftist leaders shared a more conservative cultural sensibility. This exposed, Barr-Melej argues, a degree of intergenerational dissonance within leftist ranks. And while the allure of new and heterodox cultural values and practices among young people grew, an array of constituencies from the Left to the Right berated counterculture in national media, speeches, schools, and other settings. This public discourse of contempt ultimately contributed to the fierce repression of nonconformist youth culture following the coup.

Book Description
Traditional histories of war have typically explored masculine narratives of military and political action, leaving private, domestic life relatively unstudied. This volume expands our understanding by looking at the relationships between mothers and children, and the varied roles both have assumed during periods of armed conflict.

Book Description
Virginity is of concern here, that is its utter messiness. At once valuable and detrimental, normative and deviant, undesirable and enviable. Virginity and its loss hold tremendous cultural significance. For many, female virginity is still a universally accepted condition, something that is somehow bound to the hymen, whereas male virginity is almost as elusive as the G-spot: we know it's there, it’s just we have a harder time finding it. Of course boys are virgins, queers are virgins, some people reclaim their virginities, and others reject virginity from the get go. So what if we agree to forget the hymen all together? Might we start to see the instability of terms like untouched, pure, or innocent? Might we question the act of sex, the very notion of relational sexuality? After all, for many people it is the sexual acts they don’t do, or don’t want to do, that carry the most abundant emotional clout. Virgin Envy is a collection of essays that look past the vestal virgins and beyond Joan of Arc. From medieval to present-day literature, the output of HBO, Bollywood, and the films of Abdellah Taïa or Derek Jarman to the virginity testing of politically active women in Tahrir Square, the writers here explore the concept of virginity in today’s world to show that ultimately virginity is a site around which our most basic beliefs about sexuality are confronted, and from which we can come to understand some of our most basic anxieties, paranoias, fears, and desires.
