Reviews

'From the wars of independence and postcolonial nation-building to contemporary struggles over multiculturalism, this volume fills a crucial gap in our understanding of how women have played active roles in nationalist and anti-nationalist movements, as well as how gender informs historical understandings of national belonging and citizenship in Latin America.' Amy Lind, University of Cincinnati, USA
