Title: Women And Politics In Chile
Description: "Why have women remained marginalized in Chilean politics, even within a context of democratization? Addressing this question, Susan Franceschet traces women's political activism in the country - from the early-twentieth-century struggles for suffrage to current efforts to expand and deepen the practice of democracy. Clarifying the themes and challenges of the Chilean women's movement today, she finds an inextricable link between women's struggles for citizenship rights and the nation's broader struggles for democracy and social justice."--Jacket.
