  • Unpacking the Backlash to Marriage Equality in Latin America Paper Prepared for Presentation at the Western Political Science Assn
    Unpacking the Backlash to Marriage Equality in Latin America Paper prepared for presentation at the Western Political Science Assn. Annual Meeting March 29-31, 2018 San Francisco, CA Adriana Piatti-Crocker, University of Illinois Springfield, [email protected] Jason Pierceson, University of Illinois Springfield, [email protected] Marriage equality has been legalized throughout Latin America nations of with significant involvement by courts in all many nations, despite strong civil law norms and practices inhibiting judicial policymaking. Colombia and Mexico saw high levels of judicialization in their legalization of marriage equality. Recently, however, each nation has seen significant conservative backlashes to these developments, and scholars have emphasized this backlash (Corrales 2017; Díez 2018). A line of scholarship has emerged in the United States questioning the narrative that litigation concerning marriage equality engendered a damaging backlash, a challenge to the long-dominant view of scholars such as Gerald Rosenberg. This paper examines the litigation in these countries and the backlash created by the marriage equality policies through the lenses of the judicialization of politics in Latin America and the backlash scholarship to argue that in parts of Latin America, like the U.S., the backlash is not as significant as it may appear. While the primary focus will be on Colombia and Mexico, developments in other nations with significant levels of judicialization or lack of a backlash will be examined. We argue that backlashes do not reverse marriage equality policies, especially in the long run. Rather, they are used by conservative activists for short-term political goals. Public opinion trends in both nations support marriage equality, and opponents are mostly waging fights that may suit their 2 immediate political needs but will do little to reverse the policies.

  • La Dualidad De La Identidad Hispanounidense En La Enseñanza De Español Para Hispanohablantes En Los Institutos De Los Estados Unidos
    La dualidad de la identidad hispanounidense en la enseñanza de español para hispanohablantes en los institutos de los Estados Unidos Autora: Bárbara Redondo Quesada Tutor: Dr. Antonio Torres Torres Enseñanza: Máster de Español como lengua extranjera en ámbitos profesionales. Promoción: 2016-2018. - RESUMEN - La relación entre el español y el inglés en Estados Unidos siempre ha sido muy estrecha desde la formación del país. No obstante, en la última década, el incremento de la población hispana ha traído consigo que la lengua española se haya convertido en el segundo idioma más hablado en la nación norteamericana, pero ¿este hecho significa que ahora goza de una mayor aceptación por parte del mainstream estadounidense? Diversos estudios sociológicos demuestran que el español se pierde de forma generacional y uno de los motivos es la creencia de que así se facilitará la asimilación de los nuevos latinos en la sociedad media, provocando que estos deban renunciar a una parte de su identidad híbrida. El principal objetivo de esta investigación es averiguar cómo la dualidad cultural de los adolescentes hispanounidenses se utiliza en la enseñanza de español como lengua de herencia, tanto en las aulas como en algunos materiales destinados a los niveles de High School, con tal de motivarlos a que sigan estudiando el idioma español conectándolo con la realidad que les rodea. Con el propósito de extraer datos concluyentes sobre las necesidades lingüísticas y socioculturales de esta clase de estudiantes que nos guiaran en la creación de una unidad didáctica dirigida a un curso de AP de lengua española, se han analizado tres manuales diferentes de español para hispanohablantes y se ha entrevistado a profesores de dos institutos bilingües de Nueva York.

  • Université De Montréal Feminist Contributions to Industrial Design
    Université de Montréal Feminist Contributions to Industrial Design and Design for Sustainability Theories and Practices par Isabel Prochner École de design, Faculté de l’aménagement Thèse présentée en vue de l’obtention du grade de Philosophiæ Doctor (Ph.D) en Aménagement mars, 2018 © Prochner, 2018 ii Université de Montréal Cette thèse intitulée : Feminist Contributions to Industrial Design and Design for Sustainability Theories and Practices présentée par Isabel Prochner a été évaluée par un jury composé des personnes suivantes : Christophe Abrassart Président rapporteur Anne Marchand Directrice de recherche Joëlle Rouleau Membre du jury Pinar Kaygan Examinatrice externe Claudine Déom Représentant du doyen iii iv Résumé Ce projet étudie comment des perspectives féministes pourraient informer les théories et les pratiques du design industriel et du design durable. Les diverses perspectives féministes sur et dans le design industriel promettent d’offrir plusieurs contributions uniques et précieuses, en surlignant des problèmes sociaux ou en lien avec la durabilité dans le domaine et en suggérant des options plus durables. Cependant, il n’y a pas beaucoup d’initiatives féministes en design industriel, donc les contributions potentielles d’une perspective féministe ne sont pas bien connues et sont minimalement explorées et exploitées. Ainsi, ce projet demande : comment le féminisme informe-t-il les théories et les pratiques du design industriel et du design durable ? Les buts sont d’identifier les critiques et les recommandations féministes envers le design industriel, d’identifier les relations entre les initiatives féministes en design industriel et le design durable, et d’identifier les connaissances que les initiatives féministes en design pourraient offrir au design durable.

  • AMH4930, AF-AM & Latino Hist, Ortiz
    African American and Latina/o Histories AMH 4930.387E (DRAFT COPY) Professor Paul Ortiz University of Florida Fall Semester, 2019 Wednesdays, 1:55 pm to 4:55 pm Keene-Flint 0117 Course Description: In this research seminar we will undertake a comparative study of African American and Latina/o histories, cultures, and politics. Major themes include slavery, colonialism, revolutions, social movements and racial formation in the modern era. Special emphasis will be placed on overlapping as well as distinctive histories and struggles for citizenship and human rights. Course will include analyses of African American and Latina/o oral traditions, film, poetry, drama, memoir, and various forms of expressive cultures. Course Objectives/Student Learning Outcomes: We will explore histories, cultures, and politics of African Americans and Latinx people since the Mexican War of Independence. Students will gain an understanding of the connections between events such as the abolition of slavery in Latin America, the US invasion of Mexico, and the coming of the American Civil War. We will examine the relationship between Reconstruction in the United States and the Ten Years War in Cuba including efforts by African Americans to provide support to the struggle for Cuban independence. We will also study connections between the Spanish American War and the expanding Jim Crow/Juan Crow systems in the US South. In the 20th century, we will examine labor movements of Latina/o and African Americans in the American southwest and southeast including Florida. We will assess the rise of the modern Chicana/Latinx and African American civil rights and human rights movements and the presidency of Barack Obama.

  • Event Progam
    The Institute for Korean Studies and The Latin American & Hemispheric Studies Program Present: Lecture Series, “Korean Women, Argentine Documentaries: A Look at La chica del sur (2012) and Una canción coreana (2014)” Speaker: Chisu Teresa Ko, Associate Professor of Spanish, Ursinus College Thursday, April 25, 2019, 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm Room 602, the Lindner Family Commons, Elliott School of International Affairs, the George Washington University, 1957 E Street, NW, Washington, DC 20052 ◊ Event Description This talk examines two recent Argentine documentaries focused on Korean women. La chica del sur (The Girl from the South, 2012) by José Luis García features the iconic South Korean student activist, Lim Su Kyung, who shocked the world in 1989 by visiting North Korea for the 13th World Festival of Youth and Students, a transgression for which she would be sentenced to five years in a South Korean prison. Una canción coreana (A Korean Song, 2014) by Yael Tujsnaider and Gustavo Tarrío sets out to depict the daily life of Ana Jung, a Korean immigrant in Buenos Aires, as she works on her artistic, business, and familial pursuits. While both women have “vocal” jobs and vocations—Lim is a politician and Jung a singer—the documentaries turn their attention to the ways their voices are silenced by gendered power structures or changing political discourses. This talk will take a close look at how these two Korean women are documented and imagined from the Argentine perspective. Furthermore, given that representations of Koreans in Argentina have been scarce and often negative, this talk also attempts to understand the ‘why’ and ‘why now’ of these two documentaries.
