Disciplinamiento en roles sexuales tradicionales. La institucionalización de las mujeres en centros residenciales.
2022
No resulta sencillo entender como a pesar del coste económico, de no conseguir los objetivos explícitos ni responder a las necesidades e intereses de las mujeres, su institucionalización pervive y evoluciona desde la Edad Media hasta la actualidad adaptándose al discurso del poder sobre la protección de las mujeres. El objetivo de este trabajo es iniciar un proceso de análisis y reflexión sobre la institucionalización de las mujeres en los centros residenciales de servicios sociales desde la perspectiva feminista. Para ello, se ha realizado una revisión de fuentes secundarias sobre la historia de la institucionalización de las mujeres y se han analizado los mecanismos, formas discursivas y …
Female survivors’ experiences of authorities’ actions in cases of partner stalking
2020
Previous studies have shown that civil authorities fail to understand the nature of stalking and the harmful consequences it causes victims. The aim of this study was to investigate how the victims of partner stalking had perceived the actions of civil authorities and the stalking investigation process. The data were drawn from conversations among members of an internet-based peer support group for female victims of partner stalking. We identified four main categories of victims’ experiences pertaining to authorities’ actions and the investigation process: authorities’ problems in dealing with stalking, dissatisfaction with the investigation process, trust in the authorities and expectation…

2011
En els darrers vint-i-cinc anys l’interès pels estudis de traducció i la relació amb el gènere ha propiciat una recerca abundant i diversa. Aquest article mira d’oferir una visió panoràmica sobre la intersecció de la traducció i els estudis de gènere en el context de la llengua catalana, un punt de partida per a recerques futures. D’una banda, donem notícia dels principals treballs, panoràmics i específics, que se centren en la recuperació de traductores catalanes i els seus escrits. De l’altra, repassem les teories que han plantejat la intersecció gènere i traducció en català.
Gender and translation in Catalan: archaeological groundwork for assessing the state of affairs
2011
This article is the English version of “Gènere i traducció en català. Bases arqueològiques per a un estat de la qüestió” by Pilar Godayol. It was not published on the print version of MonTI for reasons of space. The online version of MonTI does not suffer from these limitations, and this is our way of promoting plurilingualism. In the last twenty-five years, interest in translation studies and its relation to gender has given rise to abundant and diverse research. This article seeks to offer a panoramic vision of the intersection between gender and translation in the Catalan language context, a point of departure for future research. On the one hand, we present the principal works, panorami…
Cinematic images of nation-ness: Space, time and gender inYoung Eagles(Estonia) andLāčplēsis(Latvia)
2012
ABSTRACTIn this article, I analyse cinematic time and space and their interaction, in which nation-ness is articulated as a unifying identity in the epic films Lācplēsis/Bear-Slayer (Latvia, Aleksandrs Rusteiķis, 1930) and Noored Kotkad/Young Eagles (Estonia, Theodor Luts, 1927, digitally remastered in 2008). In discussing the timespace organization of nation-ness in these films, I address representations of the political ‘birth of a nation’ and modern national identity. I discuss the ways in which the narratives in Young Eagles and Lācplēsis re-claim a traditional gender binary, predicated on a splitting and differentiating relationship with Otherness, embodied in the sexual threat of male…
Vielfalt* lehren – sexuelle und geschlechtliche Vielfalt im Studium der Grundschulpädagogik
2021
This article takes instances of discrimination and coming out experiences of young queer people as a starting point in order to focus on the field of sexual and gender diversity at the elementary/primary school level. Thus, the author examines laws and regulations of schools and universities regarding their general implementation of sex-education, and in relation to gender and sexual diversity in particular. The article proposes an outline that recommends implementing an interdisciplinary and heteronormative critical sex-education with which gender is posited as an identity marker within a discourse around inclusion and diversity. The article proposes an outline that recommends implementing…
Civic Participation and Gender Beliefs: An Analysis of 46 Countries
2016
Gender equality has progressed a great deal in recent decades in response to modernisation, industrialisation, and the generally rising level of education. A transformation in gender beliefs has accompanied the progress on gender equality and beliefs about gender roles have mainly changed in countries in North America and Europe, while in Muslim and Asian countries they have remained the same. The analysis in this article focuses on civic participation and investigates its relation to equalitarian gender beliefs. Multi-level regression models and data from World Values Survey (WVS) collected from 46 countries in 2005 allow depicting the relationships. The findings show that membership in ci…
Are byline biases an issue of the past? The effect of author’s gender and emotion norm prescriptions on the evaluation of news articles on gender equ…
2021
When female journalists write about issues of gender equality, they often become the target of incivility and their work is devaluated. Research has investigated such devaluations based on journalists’ gender under the scope of byline biases, analysing if it matters to readers whether a news piece is authored by a male or female journalist. In this paper, we set out to study if gender byline biases occur when journalists write about gender equality. As gender attributions become particularly salient through the presentation of gendered emotion norms, we also inquire in how it matters for readers’ interest in reading such an article and the attributed credibility of the author when an artic…

Sex and Gender Equality Policies in Education in Three Southern European Societies: the cases of Andalusia and Valencian Community (Spain) and Portug…
2020
Gender mainstreaming is an international strategy in Europe relating to gender equality using an intersectional approach. It deals, specifically, with new challenges for sexuality and diversity in education. From within this context, this paper focuses on two goals. The first is to analyse sex and gender equality policies in education, since the 2000s, in three Southern European societies: Andalusia and Valencian Community, in Spain, and Portugal. The second goal is to arrive at some comparative conclusions about the recent developments in sex and gender equality policies in education in these three societies. We end with some comparative conclusions. First, there is the political orientati…
