The decency of inequality : gender, power and social change on the Argentine prairie

Omtale

A presentation of the history of immigration and colonization in Argentina in general, and particularly the history of the Friulian immigrants who are the ancestors of the present farmers. The frame of analysis is widened as the author extends her frame of analysis to gender relations within three interrelated "domains" of relationships: sexuality, labour and power, and within different institutional settings, the family, the "street", the market and the Church being the most important. With maps, a bibliography and index.
