The Role of Political Parties in Promoting Women in Politics - Upla Women's Network Contribution
THE ROLE OF POLITICAL PARTIES IN PROMOTING WOMEN IN POLITICS - UPLA WOMEN'S NETWORK CONTRIBUTION INTRODUCTION The Women's Network of the Union of Latin American Parties (UPLA) is a political platform that seeks to promote and strengthen the participation and positioning of women in public decision-making roles in Latin America and the Caribbean. We believe that the practices, policies and values of political parties can have a profound impact on women's political participation and representation. That is why the Network decided to join the iKNOW Politics e-discussion on “The Role of Political Parties in Promoting Women in Politics” to exchange knowledge on the role of political parties in promoting women’s participation and political representation. We prepared our contribution and discussed these important topics more widely during online discussions among members of the UPLA Women’s Network in August and September 2019.

“Bringing Militancy to Management”: an Approach to the Relationship
“Bringing Militancy to Management”: An Approach to the Relationship between Activism 67 “Bringing Militancy to Management”: An Approach to the Relationship between Activism and Government Employment during the Cristina Fernández de Kirchner Administration in Argentina Melina Vázquez* Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET); Instituto de Investigaciones Gino Germani; Universidad de Buenos Aires, Argentina Abstract This article explores the relationship between employment in public administration and militant commitment, which is understood as that which the actors themselves define as “militant management.” To this end, an analysis is presented of three groups created within three Argentine ministries that adopted “Kirchnerist” ideology: La graN maKro (The Great Makro), the Juventud de Obras Públicas, and the Corriente de Libertación Nacional. The article explores the conditions of possibility and principal characteristics of this activism as well as the guidelines for admission, continuing membership, and promotion – both within the groups and within government entities – and the way that this type of militancy is articulated with expert, professional and academic capital as well as the capital constituted by the militants themselves. Keywords: Activism, expert knowledge, militant careers, state. * Article received on November 22, 2013; final version approved on March 26, 2014. This article is part of a series of studies that the author is working on as a researcher at CONICET and is part of the project “Activism and the Political Commitment of Youth: A Socio-Historical Study of their Political and Activist Experiences (1969-2011)” sponsored by the National Agency for Scientific and Technological Promotion, Argentine Ministry of Science, Technology and Productive Innovation (2012-2015), of which the author is the director. -
Artist: Period/Style: Patron: Material/Technique: Form
TITLE:Vietnam Veterans Memorial LOCATION: Washington, D.C., U.S. DATE: . 1982 C.E. ARTIST: Maya Lin PERIOD/STYLE: Minimalism PATRON: The Commision of Fine Arts MATERIAL/TECHNIQUE: Granite FORM: Highly reflective black granite with incised names of 58,000 names ofVietnam Veterans who sacrificed their lives during the conflict. The name is an abstraction that means more to the family and friends than a pictorial representation. The two walls start very short and get progressively taller until they meet at an oblique angle at the monument’s center. One wall points towards the Washington Monument; the other points to the Lincoln Memorial. FUNCTION: It functions as a memorial to the soldiers that died during the Vietnam War. It is an ideal place for people to come and spend quiet time reflecting on the names and perhaps leaving mementos to the deceased. CONTENT: The walls are made of a dark igneous rock called gabbro, a type of granite, which is highly reflective when polished.The surface of the monument is etched with the 58,195 names of the Americans who died or remained missing in action in the Vietnam War. The names are listed in the order in which they were reported killed or missing in action. This makes the names harder to find, and re- quires a listing and numeric system of organization for visitors. CONTEXT: There were 1400 anonymous entries for this commission. There was a real backlash once her identity was known because of latent racism in the post Vietnam era. She defended her design in front of the United States Congress, who eventually reached a compro- mise: A group of more “traditional” sculptures, called “The Three Soldiers,” was erected near the monument. -
REVISTA SAAP V8 N2 D.Pmd
Unidos y diversificados: la construcción del partido PRO en la CABA GABRIEL VOMMARO Universidad Nacional de General Sarmiento, Argentina Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas, Argentina [email protected] SERGIO DANIEL MORRESI Universidad Nacional de General Sarmiento, Argentina Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas, Argentina [email protected] El presente trabajo intenta cumplir dos objetivos. El primero es mos- trar y explicar los motivos de las dificultades que los partidos centro-dere- cha han tenido en la política argentina durante las últimas décadas. El segundo es exponer de qué modo el partido Propuesta Republicana (PRO) se ha enfrentado a esas dificultades a través de una estrategia subnacional y un posicionamiento que se presenta como posmaterial y no antiperonista. Se presentan argumentos analíticos y se exponen datos obtenidos mediante un trabajo de campo realizado durante 2011-2012 con cuadros políticos y dirigentes de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires. Desde que se reinstaló la democracia en 1983, varios partidos políticos de centro-derecha intentaron exorcizar la maldición de su contumaz fracaso electoral acudiendo a diferentes estrategias, tales como utilizar al Congreso Nacional como caja de resonancia, usar de forma sistemática a los medios de comunicación como sustitutos del trabajo territorial y el acercamiento a determinadas fracciones del peronismo. Por distintos motivos, estas estrate- gias resultaron infructuosas o no pudieron ser sostenidas en el tiempo. Sin embargo, con posterioridad a la crisis de 2001, surgió la Alianza Propuesta Republicana (más conocida por su forma abreviada PRO) que, en muy poco tiempo cosechó un éxito destacable a partir de una estrategia subnacional con base en la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (CABA). -
