However, a recent confluence of political, economic, and historical factors has allowed for the emergence of civil society organizations (CSOs) that afford women a voice throughout the region. Leadership from the Margins describes and analyzes the unique leadership styles and challenges facing the women leaders of CSOs in Argentina, Chile, and El Salvador. Based on ethnographic research, Serena Cosgrove's analysis offers a nuanced account of the distinct struggles facing women, and how differences of class, political ideology, and ethnicity have informed their outlook and organizing strategies. Using a gendered lens, she reveals the power and potential of women's leadership to impact the direction of local, regional, and global development agendas. 606 $aWomen$xPolitical activity$zLatin America 606 $aLeadership in women$zLatin America 606 $aWomen in development$zLatin America 606 $aCivil society$zLatin America 606 $aSocial movements$zLatin America 615 0$aWomen$xPolitical activity 615 0$aLeadership in women 615 0$aWomen in development 615 0$aCivil society 615 0$aSocial movements 676 $a305.42098 700 $aCosgrove$b Serena$f1963-$01491268 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788357503321 996 $aLeadership from the margins$93713047 997 $aUNINA
