Produktinformationen zu „Social Movements and the Struggles for Rights, Justice and Democracy in Paraguay / Social Movements and Transformation (PDF)“

Paraguay is an under-examined, but remarkably fascinating country, where war, dictatorship, and elite capture have produced cycles of popular mobilization and repression. Yet, its social movements are less known to international audiences. This book analyzes Paraguay's principal social movements since the transition to democracy and examines how, in the context of a weak state, authoritarian political elite, and a deficient democratization process, they contribute to progressive policy, socio-economic development, and democracy. Using critical perspectives in sociology, anthropology, geography, and political science, we bring together scholars, activists, and practitioners of social critique and community organizing. They reflect on movements involving peasant, indigenous and agrarian rights to land and livelihoods, LGBTQ and feminist struggles, labor union struggles, and student demands for access to quality education and social development, while exploring how the particularisms of Paraguay result in differences from other Latin American movements and how overarching regional tendencies may explain the similarities.

Charmain Levy is Tenured Professor in social sciences at the University of Québec in Outaouais (UQO), Canada, where she lectures in International Development Studies.

Laureen Elgert is Associate Professor of environmental policy and international development at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, USA. Laureen worked in the Mbaracayu Biosphere Reserve in Paraguay's Interior Atlantic Forest where she helped facilitate the emergence of local and regional governance institutions. Her research interests include the politics of sustainability indicators, expertise, and environmental discourses.

Valérie L'Heureux is a PhD candidate in social and cultural analysis at Concordia University, Canada, and is interested in the strategies and influence of transnational social movements, the politics of radical internationalism, and relational ethics. She holds a BA in International Studies and an MA in Political Science. Her research interests include Paraguayan politics, the G20, communication rights and public-private partnerships.
