Hydric conflict and territorial defense: Women in the Peasant Movement of Santiago del Estero, Argentina by Mariela Pena

“…It is concluded that women play a transcendental role in the resilience strategies of their communities, within a context of scarcity, violence, and dispossession. At the same time, another of the findings is that collectively organized territorial defense facilitates their access to water and other resources, through the generation of broader networks and alliances, even on a transnational scale.…”
