Book Description
This groundbreaking book reframes five hundred years of western Nicaraguan history by giving gender and sexuality the attention they deserve. Victoria González-Rivera decenters nationalist narratives of triumphant mestizaje and argues that western Nicaragua's LGBTQIA+ history is a profoundly Indigenous one. In this expansive history, González-Rivera documents connections between Indigeneity, local commerce, and femininity (cis and trans), demonstrating the long history of LGBTQIA+ Nicaraguans. She sheds light on historical events, such as Andres Caballero's 1536 burning at the stake for sodomy. González-Rivera discusses how elite efforts after independence to "modernize" open-air markets led to increased surveillance of LGBTQIA+ working-class individuals. She also examines the 1960s and the Somoza dictatorship, when another wave of persecution emerged, targeting working-class gay men and trans women, leading to a more stringent anti-sodomy law. The centuries prior to the post-1990 political movement for greater LGBTQIA+ rights demonstrate that, far from being marginal, LGBTQIA+ Nicaraguans have been active in every area of society for hundreds of years.

Comparative Public Policy in Latin America
Author: Jordi Diez
Publisher: University of Toronto Press
ISBN: 1442663626
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 329
Book Description
This pioneering collection offers a comprehensive investigation into how to study public policy in Latin America. While this region exhibits many similarities with the North American and European countries that have traditionally served as sources for generating public policy knowledge, Latin American countries are also different in many fundamental ways. As such, existing policy concepts and frameworks may not always be the most effective tools of analysis for this unique region. To fill this gap, Comparative Public Policy in Latin America offers guidelines for refining current theories to suit Latin America’s contemporary institutional and socio-economic realities. The contributors accomplish this task by identifying the features of the region that shape public policy, including informal norms and practices, social inequality, and weak institutions. This book promises to become the definitive work on contemporary public policy in Latin America, essential for those who study the area as well as comparative public policy more broadly.

Book Description
This book collects essays which discuss women's representation of women and the war story in Latin American literature, looking in particular at their experiences, historical contexts, and their political and creative aims. This collection draws together for the first time a range of narratives of conflict and revolution as represented by Latin American women writers. By embracing a broad definition of conflict and by engaging with a wide range of narratives of conflict, it provides a space for multiple and complex versions of subjectivity, writing and experience-in-conflict to co-exist.

Psicología de la pareja y grupo familiar
Author: Luis Fernández
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1471617033
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : es
Pages : 144
Book Description
Luis Fernández demuestra en esta obra sus amplios conocimientos sobre las relaciones interpersonales, particularmente en las relaciones de pareja y en el grupo familiar. Denuncia a lo largo de las diferentes partes del libro lo falso en la interrelación familiar, en el amor de pareja y la sexualidad inapropiadamente desarrollada. Habla sin tapujos y valientemente de lo falso de vivir y sentir en las relaciones íntimas. En forma de diálogo, el autor expone en esta obra, tres situaciones de amor y desamor para que el lector pueda juzgar por sí mismo como forma de autoanalizarse. De rompedor contra lo establecido, podemos calificar al autor, desafiante ante lo institucionalizado que impide el crecimiento en libertad de los individuos. En algunos momentos roza la crueldad por su capacidad destructora de la mentira y la falsedad, en otras partes, expresa una verdadera ternura ante la debilidad de los demás. Pero sin duda, no deja impasible a nadie y nos hace pensar y pensar sobre lo pensado.
