Book excerpt: La presente investigación surge de la necesidad de conocer cómo las personas cuya orientación sexual e identidad de género son distintas a la norma cisgénero y heterosexual viven su ciudadanía en Lima Metropolitana. Para poder aproximarnos a la comprensión de esta realidad es importante tener en cuenta algunos elementos que introduciremos a continuación y que estarán presentes a lo largo de este documento. En primer lugar, es importante entender que la construcción histórica del proyecto de Estado-Nación peruano ha tomado en cuenta la garantía de derechos para un sujeto de derecho hegemónico: hombre, blanco, con patrimonio, profesional, cisgénero, heterosexual, casado y católico. Las leyes en nuestro país no han sido pensadas para garantizar derechos a mujeres, personas que no hablan castellano o no forman parte de la cultura occidental, grupos indígenas, afrodescendientes, personas con discapacidades, sectores periféricos, grupos con bajos recursos y sin propiedades a su nombre, y tampoco fueron pensadas para el colectivo LGBTIQ; menos aún se ha pensado en la garantía de derechos a personas en las que concurren todas estas identidades al mismo tiempo. En toda sociedad humana los recursos son limitados, por lo que se establecen formas de redistribución de los mismos bajo principios que ordenan la vida en sociedad. La redistribución de recursos responde a las relaciones de poder que establecen los individuos de dicha sociedad, relaciones que en los países que han sufrido procesos de colonización, como el nuestro, responden a los procesos de diferenciación que han marcado la historia de desigualdad y conlicto que atraviesa nuestro país. Han sido muy pocos los libros de historia oicial y los pensadores que desde la academia han evidenciado cómo las variables de sexualidad y de género constituyen también la construcción de nuestra Nación, pues suele presentarse la historia como marcada por hechos realizados por hombres, entre leyes y guerras, lo cual invisibiliza cómo la posibilidad de acceder a estos recursos está marcada por la desigualdad basada en el género. Bajo la misma lógica, la historia oicial no ha documentado la existencia de personas que diieren de la norma heterosexual, pues es justamente sobre la construcción de la heterosexualidad como norma que se justiica la manutención del poder en manos de sujetos hegemónicos. La hegemonía cisheteronormativa, entonces, es el sistema político y cultural por el cual los sujetos dominantes sustentan su poder (fundamentado en el sistema racista, clasista, machista y homofóbico), mediante la reproducción de sus valores, creencias y objetivos como intereses universales, lo cual naturaliza la desigualdad y la presenta como normal, y permite mantener al resto de individuos dominados bajo el orden social que plantean. En el caso de nuestra ciudad, la construcción de una norma de ciudadanos cisgénero y heterosexuales se ha implementado mediante instituciones como la Iglesia, el sistema médico, las leyes, los medios de comunicación, las prisiones y las escuelas, mediante el constante refuerzo de que la única forma aceptable de existir en el mundo es ser heterosexual y respetar los roles asignados según el género: las mujeres deben ser madres abnegadas y los hombres machos proveedores. Cumplir con esos roles es la única forma de acceder a recursos y garantizar la propia supervivencia, tener una efectiva participación política (por eso tenemos funcionarios públicos LGBTIQ contados con los dedos de la mano), acceder plenamente al derecho a la educación en un espacio seguro, verse representado de forma positiva en los medios de comunicación, acceder a un trabajo digno y a un documento de identidad que te represente, y formar una familia al igual que el resto de ciudadanos y ciudadanas.

Book A Global Approach to the Gender Gap in Mathematical  Computing  and Natural Sciences

Download or read book A Global Approach to the Gender Gap in Mathematical Computing and Natural Sciences written by Colette Guillopé and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-06 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reports on a three-year project (2017-2019) funded by the International Science Council and involving eleven scientific partner organizations. The main goal of the project was to investigate the gender gap in STEM disciplines from different angles, globally and across disciplines. We have performed (i) a global survey of scientists with more than 32,000 responses; (ii) an investigation of the effect of gender in millions of scientific publications; and (iii) the compilation of best-practice initiatives that address the gender gap in Mathematical, Computing, and Natural Sciences at various levels. We conclude that the gender gap is very real in science and mathematics. We present methodologies, insights, and tools that have been developed throughout the project, as well as a set of recommendations for different audiences: instructors and parents; educational institutions; scientific unions and other organizations responsible for science policy.

Download or read book Protest and Democracy written by Moises Arce and published by . This book was released on 2019-06-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2011, political protests sprang up across the world. In the Middle East, Europe, Latin America, the United States unlikely people sparked or led massive protest campaigns from the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street. These protests were made up of educated and precariously employed young people who challenged the legitimacy of their political leaders, exposed a failure of representation, and expressed their dissatisfaction with their place in the aftermath of financial and economic crisis. This book interrogates what impacts--if any--this global protest cycle had on politics and policy and shows the sometimes unintended ways it continues to influence contemporary political dynamics throughout the world. Proposing a new framework of analysis that calls attention to the content and claims of protests, their global connections, and the responsiveness of political institutions to protest demands, this is one of the few books that not only asks how protest movements are formed but also provides an in-depth examination of what protest movements can accomplish. With contributions examining the political consequences of protest, the roles of social media and the internet in protest organization, left- and right-wing movements in the United States, Chile's student movements, the Arab Uprisings, and much more this collection is essential reading for all those interested in the power of protest to shape our world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is number two in a series for Primates in Fragments. In this volume, ten years after the first http://www.springer.com/social+sciences/anthropology+%26+archaeology/book/978-0-306-47696-9, we continue to address issues regarding primates within a fractured landscape. There are seven sections based on specific categories of primates in fragments. In the Introductory section, authors discuss the issues surrounding primates in remnant habitats as well as encourage discussion about what we mean by fragmentation on a landscape scale. In the Long-Term and Regional Studies section, authors present information on changes that have occurred during longer studies as well as changes that have occurred over regions. In the Landscape, Metapopulations and the Matrix section, authors cover topics from dry to moist forests, and from metapopulations to single species use of multiple fragments locations. In Feeding and Behavioral Ecology, authors take a closer look at the flexibility and responsiveness of primates in fragments in terms of their food choices, resource use, and behavioral changes. In Endemic, Endangered, and Nocturnal Primates authors uncover details involving critical primates living in major city centers to the heights of the Himalayas. In Genetics, Disease and Parasites authors cover topics including population viability, disease and parasite transmission between primates in fragments and humans. Finally, in the Conservation and Ecology: Threats and Management section, we synthesize information in this volume and make recommendations for the future of work in this field and the survivability of primates in fragments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume was created initially from a symposium of the same name presented at the International Primatological Society's XVIII Congress in Adelaide. South Australia. 6-12 January 2000. Many of the authors who have contributed to this text could not attend the symposium. so this has become another vehicle for the rapidly growing discipline of Fragmentation Science among primatologists. Fragmentation has quickly become a field separate from general ecology. which underscores the severity of the situation since we as a planet are rapidly losing habitat of all types to human disturbance. Getting ecologists. particularly primatologists. to admit that they study in fragments is not easy. In the field of primatology. one studies many things. but rarely do those things (genetics. behavior. population dynamics) get called out as studies in fragmentation. For some reason "fragmentation primatologists" fear that our work is somehow "not as good" as those who study in continuous habitat. We worry that perhaps our subjects are not demonstrating as robust behaviors as they "should" given fragmented or disturbed habitat conditions. I had a colleague openly state that she did not work in fragmented forests. that she merely studied behavior when it was clear that her study sites. everyone of them. was isolated habitat. Our desire to be just another link in the data chain for wild primates is so strong that it makes us deny what kinds of habitats we are working in. However.
