Feminism in Jalisco, Mexico: The state of Jalisco in northern Mexico has had a great Catholic tradition since colonial times. Even though there is a secular government, Catholic ideology is inserted in high political spheres, and contributes to the reproduction of patriarchal social relations among men and women. Femin...ism has been hidden between shadows, even though there are radical groups fighting for women's rights. Currently Feminism in Jalisco has a "coin" effect: two different faces/ideologies, struggling to improve women status in society. Beatriz Bustos will present a short historical description of feminism in Mexico, in Jalisco, and will discuss the current politics of gender.
