History and Gender: Women under authoritarian regimes
History and Gender: Women under authoritarian regimes
The importance of the Gender category for the analysis of History is nowadays unquestionable. Since the last decades of the 20th century the term has been used for historians to enlighten different perspectives of Women History, the differences between men and women, and a plural variety of research about queer identities. However, the relations between Gender or Women History and the Political History may still be underestimated.
As Morant i Ariño (2012) has pointed out, scholars have condemned the suggestion of using Gender in studies about war, diplomacy, Politics and others. Taking this into account, the Seminar History and Gender: Women under authoritarian regimes seeks to discuss how women’s lives may have been affected by dictatorships, the resistance movements, citizenship concepts and any other aspects related with the constraint of civil rights. Also, who were the women who supported those regimes? How did they engage in their propaganda?
The main idea is to debate how the ideologies of the regimes were translated into real Politics and their consequences. The Seminar is interested in works of any geography, but mainly focused on the 20th century. We encourage proposals about Women’s History, but also History of Childhood, Queer identities, and Gender Politics.
If you are interested in participating, please send an abstract (in Portuguese, Spanish or English) with no longer than 300 words with a short bio to the e-mail jornadahistoriagenero@gmail.com until December 30th. The Seminar will be held online on January 31st.
