Title = {Revolutionary Women in Postrevolutionary
Mexico},
Publisher = {Duke University Press},
Year = {2005},
Abstract = {Revolutionary Women in Postrevolutionary Mexico investigates
women's political organizing during a critical stage of
regime consolidation. Rebutting the image of Mexican women
as conservative and anti-revolutionary, this book shows
women activists challenging prevailing beliefs about the
masculine foundations of citizenship. Piecing together
material from national and regional archives, popular
journalism, and oral histories, it examines how women
inhabited the conventionally manly role of citizen by
weaving together its quotidian and formal traditions,
drawing strategies from local political struggles and
competing gender ideologies. Revolutionary Women in
Postrevolutionary Mexico explores the complexity of
postrevolutionary Mexican politics, exploring the goals and
outcomes of women's organizing in Mexico City and the port
city of Acapulco as well as in three rural locations: the
southeastern state of Yucatán, the central state of
Michoacán, and the northern region of the Comarca Lagunera.
Combining the strengths of national and regional approaches,
this comparative perspective sets in relief the
specificities of citizenship as a lived experience.},

Title = {"The Greatest Consciousness-Raising Event in History": The
1975 International Women's Year Conference and the Challenge
of Transnational Feminism},
Publisher = {Oxford University Press},
Year = {2006},
Abstract = {In June 1975, thousands of people converged on Mexico City
for the UN conference celebrating International Women’s
Year (IWY). Billed as the “greatest consciousness-raising
event in history,” it opened with considerable fanfare as
both the official conference and the parallel tribune for
nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) quickly became stages
for political performances ranging from the sartorial to the
ideological. Observers regard IWY as a watershed moment in
transnational second-wave feminism. The formal conference
offered an unprecedented opportunity to put women at the
center of international policymaking, while the NGO
forum’s chaotic atmosphere and frequent confrontation
exposed the fault lines among those women most vocally
committed to pursuing a transnational feminist
agenda.},
