Women and Globalization
Author: Delia D. Aguilar
Publisher: Humanities Press International
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 436
Book Description
Delia D. Aguilar and Anne E. Lacsamana have assembled a collection of articles showing the various ways in which the neoliberal agenda of globalization has drawn women into productive labor and in the process radically reshaped their lives in the reproductive sphere. Implemented primarily through the structural adjustment programs required by international financial agencies, neoliberalism has intensified women's exploitation on the assembly line and spawned an unprecedented diaspora of women as mail-order brides, domestic helpers, and workers in the sex trade. Many of the essays describe the appalling conditions that characterize these work sites. Not less important, they underscore the vitality of grassroots organizations where women collectively wage battles for better work lives and envision a system more humane than what currently exists.

Author:
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Poor women
Languages : es
Pages : 174
Book Description
Esta obra aborda el problema de la "feminizacion" de la pobreza, haciendo un analisis de las diferencias de genero en las diferentes formas de pobreza. El tema se centra en el area de america latina y el caribe, donde las mujeres y especialmente las pobres, negras o indigenas estan en una situacion mas dificil. Otro asunto que centra el interes, es el de la injusta distribucion de los ingresos, con el consiguiente desequilibrio entre ricos y pobres. Cuestiona por tanto, las politicas de desarrollo que se han llevado a cabo en los ultimos años, ya que no han podido erradicar las desigualdades de genero ni la situacion de marginacion. En este volumen se incluyen varios trabajos que, desde una perspectiva de genero, presentan una serie de analisis diferentes y proponen nuevas reflexiones.

Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
A collection of essays by international authorities ranging from psychologists and doctors to economists and communication experts. Several authors analyze the economic and health costs imposed by domestic violence, documenting that domestic violence is both a serious public health issue and a severe impediment to economic development. Others examine promising approaches that have been used to combat domestic violence, including community treatment and prevention networks, telephone hotlines, judicial and police reform, anti-violence curricula in primary and secondary schools, street theatre, and creative use of the mass media. The book is based on the 1997 IDB conference, Domestic Violence in Latin America and the Caribbean: Costs, Programs and Policies.

Cross-border Dialogues
Author: David Brooks
Publisher: Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies University of Cali
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 464
Book Description
This collection brings together assessments of a decade of social responses to economic integration between the United States and Mexico, documenting the emergence of social organizations and constituencies as key actors in the bilateral relationship. The studies address labor, environmental, trade advocacy, Latino and immigrant rights, small farmer, and pro-democracy/human rights movements. The authors include both key social organization strategists and researchers who have followed more than a decade of cross-border networking. This book tells the story of the uninvited guests to the transnational negotiating table, their strategies, frustrations, and limitations. For many of these broad-based social constituencies, this process involved a major shift toward thinking transnationally. Their recognition of the ways in which international policies were directly affecting their national and local interests led them to seek out counterparts across borders, though finding common ground required a willingness to agree to disagree. the terms of economic integration between Mexico and the United States succeeded in embedding social and environmental concerns on the international economic policy agenda and foreshadowed the widespread international questioning of globalization that followed.
