Lynne Phillips and Sally Cole analyse how new silences, exclusions and re-inscriptions of inequalities have emerged alongside these new spaces of participation. The book re-examines the relationship between public and private and speaks to a larger theoretical question: what is the meaning of 'the public' within democracy projects? Contesting Publics considers current debates among feminists from different generations on the merits of a variety of strategies, goals and issues, drawing out vital lessons for students, researchers and activists in anthropology, gender studies and Latin American studies."--Publisher's website.Anthropology, culture, and society.FeminismWomen political activistsEthnologyLatin AmericafastLateinamerikagndFeminism.Women political activists.Ethnology.305.42098Phillips Lynne1488841Cole Sally1166356Carrier-Moisan Marie-Eve1976-1504531Lagalisse Erica1504532MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910786264303321Contesting publics3733577UNINA
