Between 1990 and 2020, women candidates won only 6% of the world's presidential races. How Women Win Presidential Elections in Latin America explains the factors, strategies, and perceptions that help (or hinder) women to democratically access their country's highest political office. Catherine Reyes-Housholder introduces a theory of gendered incentives and perceived potential to reveal why a political party would break with tradition and nominate a woman. She also shows how citizens respond when women candidates are running in incumbent parties or competing to displace those in power.Drawing on comparative research on the presidency and gender, How Women Win Presidential Elections in Latin America examines the successful campaigns of Michelle Bachelet in Chile and Dilma Rousseff in Brazil, as well as why Blanca Ovelar lost her presidential race in Paraguay. Reyes-Housholder's findings indicate that voter sexism is not a major factor; however, women do not triumph in these elections in the same ways that men do. Rather, the central unknown factor behind women's victories is how they become candidates of major parties—and gender profoundly influences who parties nominate.How Women Win Presidential Elections in Latin America is a valuable investigation of women and executive politics.

Tejiendo rutas. Perspectivas para un Chile con equidad de género, del Centro de Estudios de Conflicto y Cohesión Social (COES), es una invitación a reflexionar sobre los desafíos actuales y futuros de nuestro país. Fruto de un trabajo interdisciplinario basado en evidencia y orientado a un público general, visibiliza y analiza las fuentes y mecanismos que subyacen a la formación y persistencia de las desigualdades de género en cinco dimensiones —las interacciones sociales, el ámbito educativo, el mercado del trabajo, la política y el territorio—, así como también identifica buenas prácticas que pueden contribuir a reducirlas, constituyéndose como una verdadera herramienta para superarlas. Este libro pone a disposición de lectores y lectoras importantes estudios, reflexiones y evidencia de aquello que falta aún para vivir en una sociedad donde no haya discriminación de género y que, por lo tanto, responda en plenitud a los ideales democráticos. Es una cartografía imprescindible de las prioridades y urgencias, un modo de visibilizar y describir la desigualdad de género en diferentes ámbitos de nuestra cotidianidad. Paula Escobar. Periodista y Directora Cátedra Mujeres y Medios Universidad Diego Portales.La mirada feminista no implica solamente sumar derechos, sino que, inevitablemente, interroga lo que existe. El feminismo nace como pregunta, por eso aborda tantos registros de la realidad: económicos, sociales, sexuales y culturales. Este libro da cuenta de lo que queda por recorrer y, a la vez, da indicios de que esta es una revolución larga, porque junto con la tendencia de cambio social, suelen existir tendencias regresivas —conscientes o inconscientes— que llevan a mantener el statu quo. Constanza Michelson. Psiconoanalista, escritora y editora de Revista Barbarie.
