The struggles for independence in Latin America during the first half of the nineteenth century were accompanied by a wide-ranging debate about political rights, nationality and citizenship. In South American Independence, Catherine Davies, Claire Brewster and Hilary Owen investigate the neglected role of gender in that discussion. Examining women writers from Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, and Colombia, the book traces the contradictions inherent in revolutionary movements that, while arguing for the rights of all, remained ambivalent, at best, about the place of women. Through studies of both published and unpublished writings, South American Independence reveals the complex role of women in shaping the vexed ideologies of independence

En el presente volúmen los autores reflexionan acerca de las funciones del deporte en las sociedades latinoamericanas. Se analiza el deporte como una forma de creación de identidades, como expresión de valores sociales, como "vehículos de significados" permanentemente negociados e interpretados. La temática se trata desde un enfoque de género tanto como considerando sus dimensiones políticas, la problemática de la violencia relacionada al deporte como la relación entre deporte y religión.
