Sommario/riassunto

Negotiating Gendered Discourses analyzes the discourse surrounding Michelle Bachelet's 2006 presidential election in Chile to that of Cristina Fernández de Kirchner's 2007 election in Argentina. Christie reveals key points of intersection between the contemporary political discourse of these elections and the women-led human rights campaigns in the Southern Cone region.
