- Summary:
- Acontemporary exploration of people's responses to neoliberal market reforms in the various spaces of everyday life in Latin America: on the land, within households, and in communities. Contributors look at three aspects of this tension in particular: the politics of land and land reform; the family as a space of negotiation between men and women in their new roles in survival and labor market participation; and people living on the margins of the neoliberal project.
