Research paper thumbnail of Affective Atmospheres and the Construction of Senses and Practices of Citizenship in Ecuador

The affective atmospheres configured in these political spaces created particular senses and practices of citizenship that, as I propose, transformed both the ways in which the State and civil society relate as well as the practices of collective action and political participation in Ecuador. In this article I explore how the affective atmospheres built in these political spaces, configured by the Government of Rafael Correa, differently affected the citizenship senses and practices of women and men; and in turn, how the discourses and practices crossed by gender transformed these affective atmospheres.

For millennia, women around the world have shouldered the responsibility of caring for their families. But in recent decades, women have emerged as a major part of the global workforce, balancing careers and family life. How did this change happen? And how are societies in developing countries responding and adapting to women's newer roles in society? This four-volume encyclopedia examines the lives of women around the world, with coverage that includes the education of girls and teens; the key roles women play in their families, careers, religions, and cultures; how issues for women intersect with colonialism, transnationalism, feminism, and established norms of power and control.

Organized geographically, each volume presents detailed entries about the lives of women in particular countries. Additionally, each volume offers sidebars that spotlight topics related to women and girls in specific regions or focus on individual women's lives and contributions. Primary source documents include sections of countries' constitutions that are relevant to women and girls, United Nations resolutions and national resolutions regarding women and girls, and religious statements and proclamations about women and girls. The organization of the set enables readers to take an in-depth look at individual countries as well as to make comparisons across countries.

Entender la problemática social, política, económica y cultural desde una perspectiva de género ha contribuido a que se reconozcan persistentes desigualdades en las relaciones sociales y se identifiquen áreas de acción en todos estos ámbitos en la búsqueda de sociedades más justas, igualitarias y democráticas. Sin embargo, y a pesar de los esfuerzos impulsados desde movimientos de mujeres y feministas en la
región, desde algunas iniciativas estatales a niveles local, nacional y/o regional, y desde los pronunciamientos y adelantos a nivel mundial, las desigualdades de género persisten y continúan siendo un tema que requiere, como mínimo, atención pública y voluntad política.
