Engendering Democracy in Brazil
by Sonia E Alvarez
What is so fascinating about this book is that it is an analysis of what happened in terms of women’s activism during one of the most repressive political regimes in Latin America in the 60s, 70s and 80s. You have the paradox of the emergence of a very progressive women’s movement that mobilised tens of thousands of women and really transformed the agenda of all the major political parties.
