A great asset for researchers and students alike."-Sarah Radcliffe, University of Cambridge "This splendid volume is unique for its analytical savvy regarding the gendered history of power, authority, and cooptation in Latin America. Each chapter provides a provocative and detailed rendering of patriarchal societies and women's agency from spaces as varied as households and legislatures. This book will be of wide interest to specialists on the region and, far more broadly, it will spur reinvigorated theoretical debate on the tortuous relationship historically between gender and the state."-Matthew C. Gutmann, author of The Meanings of Macho: Being a Man in Mexico City
