Описание: Though the number of women elected to Latin American legislatures has grown significantly over the past thirty years, women - marginalized in office and relegated to the least powerful committees and leadership posts - are not gaining political power. In Political Power and Women`s Representation in Latin America, Leslie Schwindt-Bayer examines the causes and consequences of women`s representation in Latin America. Drawing on aggregate data from all eighteenLatin American democracies and original fieldwork in Argentina, Colombia and Costa Rica, the book articulates a comprehensive theory that tackles the complex and often incomplete nature of women`s political representation in Latin America.

It explains why some patterns of market reform align and stabilize party systems, whereas other patterns of reform leave party systems vulnerable to widespread social protest and electoral instability.
Studies challenging the idea that technology and science flow only from global North to South.
The essays in this volume study the creation, adaptation, and use of science and technology in Latin America. They challenge the view that scientific ideas and technology travel unchanged from the global North to the global South -- the view of technology as "imported magic." They describe not only alternate pathways for innovation, invention, and discovery but also how ideas and technologies circulate in Latin American contexts and transnationally. The contributors' explorations of these issues, and their examination of specific Latin American experiences with science and technology, offer a broader, more nuanced understanding of how science, technology, politics, and power interact in the past and present.
The essays in this book use methods from history and the social sciences to investigate forms of local creation and use of technologies; the circulation of ideas, people, and artifacts in local and global networks; and hybrid technologies and forms of knowledge production. They address such topics as the work of female forensic geneticists in Colombia; the pioneering Argentinean use of fingerprinting technology in the late nineteenth century; the design, use, and meaning of the XO Laptops created and distributed by the One Laptop per Child Program; and the development of nuclear energy in Argentina, Mexico, and Chile.
