Constitucionalismo feminista para África by Armenio Alberto Rodrigues Da Roda

“…Demonstra-se neste artigo o retrocesso do constitucionalismo africano, em acompanhar de maneira igualitária, a evolução dos direitos civis e políticos das mulheres naquele continente, na medida em que;  o direito tem se apresentado como um instrumento de manutenção de poder; que  garante os privilégios sociais e políticos  aos homens, que se valem de pretexto cultural, para reafirmar a posição hegemônica como único  sujeito universal e que simultaneamente, determina meios de legitimação de uma normatividade patriarcal, sexista e misógina, que continua oprimindo à dignada das mulheres, veiculado por um discurso falocêntrico, que limita diversos direitos às mulheres, vítimas de uma política e narrativa jurídica,  ligadas à maternidade compulsória, a redutibilidade das liberdades negativas e a não inclusão das mulheres no processo democrático;  que acaba  afetando os direitos reprodutivos, direito ao desenvolvimento, direito à trabalho, direito à participação política e  econômica no âmbito  estatal etc. …”

JUVENTUD CAMPESINA E IDENTIDADES: UNA VISIÓN DESDE LA PERSPECTIVA DE LA INTERCULTURALIDAD by Raúl Sánchez

“…  Los grandes cambios sociales y culturales que se experimentan en el marco de la sociedad actual, la cual se encuentra inmiscuida en el postmodernismo y la pluriculturalidad, ponen serios interrogantes, en el entendido, que poco a poco construye una interculturalidad social-presencial mediante un enfoque cultural y virtual, y, que al parecer, está alterando significativamente las interacciones sociales y los comportamientos del tejido social de los diversos contextos, específicamente, aquellos de gran vulnerabilidad, como los espacios geográficos rurales. …”
