In this volume, Marysa Navarro examines the role of women and gender ideology during the pre-contact and colonial periods. She looks at both early indigenous societies and the Spanish and the Portuguese who claimed the "New World," noting the interaction of race and class factors. Navarro also illustrates these dynamics through portraits of individual women, as well as through an examination of legal status and economic roles. Virginia Sanchez Korrol views the changing roles of women in Latin America and the Caribbean from the early decades of the nineteenth century to the present. She documents the part played by women in the struggles for national independence, their legal status in the new republics, and their quest for education. Sanchez Korrol considers the shifts in women's roles between the 1880s and 1930s and the accompanying broader societal transformations. She shows how women, as activists, continue to strive to eliminate double standards, exploitation, and inequality among class and ethnic groups in the specific historical periods and geographic regions.
