Description: "One of a series of 'investigation-action' studies drawing on existing work and community-based interviews with women. Parallel, but not identically-structured, volumes have appeared for Costa Rica, El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua. The excellent Guatemala volume sets out the rural context for women's lives and focuses on women's access to land (crucial to the study of rural class relations).  Also discusses women in rural politics and agrarian movements, and recommends policy changes"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
