Beskrivelse
Summary:Using a framework of social movement theories, this work reveals how feminist and labor rights advocates have used transnacional, nacional and local spaces to confront gender discrimination in the Mexican workplace. In light of the North American Free Trade Agreement and reforms moving Mexico closer toward democratic rule, gender equality advocates have met with partial success in their campaigns to legislate equality in Mexican/transnational workplaces. Overall findings from research using data from interviews with labor leaders, female legislators and feminist NGOs in Mexico, in addition to political party and US and Mexican government documents, indicate that policy changes thus far have been symbolic at best in advancing more egalitarianworkplace policies, in spite of democratic procedural changes in the Mexican system and the implementation of free trade.
