Title: -- y vivieron felices para siempre?
First published: 1994
Description: "Survey of 1,312 women from metropolitan San Jose touches on many themes, but focuses on male aggression against female partners, married or not. An unmined wealth of data lies in the appendices. Authors' wide-ranging feminist theorizing seeks a broad understanding of the data patterns. Some such findings and conceptual usages parallel studies done elsewhere. Violence and aggression are defined in extremely broad terms (including 'stony silence'), an example of questionable conceptual looseness here and there"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
