Sommario/riassunto

At a time of growing relevance for women's social and cultural movements in the Americas, Female Agency in Films Made by Latin American Women examines how the increased prominence of women in a directorial role translates into new paradigms of female agency in Latin American filmmaking. This volume bridges the two main tendencies that have characterized gender-studies approaches to the region's cinema to date: first, the survey-based analysis of films made by women and second, the study of how female characters are treated on the screen-by female and male directors. Bringing together both scholarly trends, this volume explores the complex modalities of female agency developed in recent films directed by women in Latin America, through innovative aesthetic and discursive strategies. Moving beyond consideration of visibility or representation, a diverse body of contributors in this book look for expressions of agency in the films' gaze, their affective depth, the forms of care they bring to the fore, how they highlight their characters' desires and subjectivities, and the bodily and sensorial experiences they convey. María Helena Rueda is a Professor of Spanish and Latin American Studies at Smith College, USA. Her publications focus on contemporary Latin American literature and film, particularly from Colombia, Chile, and Peru. Vania Barraza is a Professor of Spanish at the University of Memphis, USA. Her publications focus on the literature and culture of Latin America, particularly Chile, with an emphasis on film, gender, and sexuality studies.

Sommario/riassunto

Le chemin de fer, l'automobile, l'avion et la péniche sont-ils condamnés à une lutte sans merci ? En France comme dans de nombreux autres pays, l'État est intervenu au cours de ce siècle pour limiter les éventuels « méfaits » de cette concurrence intermodale et favoriser une collaboration ou « coordination » entre les modes de transports.  Cette politique « globale » se met en place au début des années 1930 alors que la motorisation des transports routiers et fluviaux et l'apparition des transports aériens exacerbent la concurrence avec les chemins de fer. Elle s'appuie sur différents outils d'intervention : la réglementation des transports publics et privés de voyageurs et de marchandises, leur tarification, leur fiscalité, les investissements et les progrès techniques.  Nicolas Neiertz nous montre comment la coordination réglementaire et tarifaire s'est instaurée par étape entre les années 1930 et les années 1900, pour régresser ensuite peu à peu. La coordination fiscale et celle des investissements n'ont jamais pu voir le jour, à cause du jeu des groupes de pression économiques et des enjeux politiques. La coordination technique (transports mixtes ou « combinés ») réalise au contraire des progrès constants, comme le montre aujourd'hui



l'avènement de l'« intermodalité ».
