Trends in intimate partner, school, and work violence against women in Chihuahua, 2003-2021

Rogelio Rodriguez Nemesio Castillo (2023, [Artículo, Artículo])

This article presents a description and analysis of the trends of violence against women in Chihuahua between 2003 and 2021, employing data from the National Survey of the Dynamics of Household Relationships (Endireh by its acronym in Spanish) for the years 2003, 2006, 2011, 2016 and 2021. The areas chosen for this analysis were intimate partner, school, and workplace. Certain increases and reductions of the problem were observed over time in these areas. Based on the results, recommendations are made for future studies on the topic and public policies to address violence against women.

The past, the present, the future, and occupational self-efficacy: an attributions and cultural differences perspective

Daniel Arturo Cernas Ortiz (2023, [Artículo, Artículo])

This study´s objective was to examine empirical relationships between three dimensions of time perspective (future, present fatalistic, and past negative) and occupational self-efficacy. By surveying Mexican (n = 286) and U.S. (n = 272) respondents, we also tested the moderating role of culture. Regression analyses revealed that time perspective dimensions have significant associations with occupational self-efficacy, being future time perspective more potent than its past negative and present fatalistic counterparts. Moderation analyses indicated that none of the examined time perspective-self-efficacy relationships varied significantly between the U.S. and Mexico. Overall, this study suggests that relationships between time perspective and occupational self-efficacy vary according to different temporal dimensions, that future TP is key to develop occupational self-efficacy, and that cultural values may not exert a significant influence on the time perspective-occupational self-efficacy connection.

Structural violence against children in Chihuahua

Hector Castro-Loera Gabriela Orozco Lopez (2022, [Artículo, Artículo])

Within the framework of philosophy and its social function, structural violence against children in Chihuahua is studied; To approach the phenomenon and propose alternatives, three theories will be related: i) feminist studies regarding violence, concepts such as intersectionality, pedagogies of cruelty and structural violence will be used, ii) the philosophy of children's rights, child´s play will be appreciated as a necessity and legal position of freedom, and iii) the event of the Aufklärung, that is, the assimilation of the present of humanity or the Enlightenment in Foucault's thought.

Shopping for Ecological Indices? On the Use of Incidence-Based Species Compositional Similarity Measures

"β-diversity has been under continuous debate, with a current need to better understand the way in which a new wave of measures work. We assessed the results of 12 incidence-based β-diversity indices. Our results of gradual species composition overlap between paired assemblages considering progressive differences in species richness show the following: (i) four indices (β-2, β-3, β-3.s, and βr) should be used cautiously given that results with no shared species retrieve results that could be misinterpreted; (ii) all measures conceived specifically as partitioned components of species compositional dissimilarities ought to be used as such and not as independent measures per se; (iii) the non-linear response of some indices to gradual species composition overlap should be interpreted carefully, and further analysis using their results as dependent variables should be performed cautiously; and (iv) two metrics (βsim and βsor) behave predictably and linearly to gradual species composition overlap. We encourage ecologists using measures of β-diversity to fully understand their mathematical nature and type of results under the scenario to be used in order to avoid inappropriate and misleading inferences."

SON LAS COSAS DEL QUERER, CLANDESTINIZACIÓN DE LOS AFECTOS, LA SEXUALIDAD Y NUESTRAS IDENTIDADES DESDE LA PERSPECTIVA DE VARONES HOMOSEXUALES DE ORIGEN RURAL DE MICHOACÁN

Jaime Antonio Ferrerira Medina (2023, [Tesis de maestría])

"La homosexualidad en contextos rurales es un tema complejo que ha sido menos estudiado en comparación con las experiencias en entornos urbanos. Sin embargo, existen investigaciones y testimonios que arrojan luz sobre esta cuestión. Los contextos rurales se encuentran impregnados de una serie de discursos que ven la homosexualidad como pecaminosa, criminal y patológica, lo que influye en gran medida en la aceptación y visibilidad de personas homosexuales. Es a partir de esta premisa que el trabajo de investigación analiza ¿cuáles podrían ser las problemáticas a las que se encuentran varones homosexuales en contextos rurales?, tomando como caso las trayectorias afectivas y sexuales de varones originarios de localidades adscritas al Cinturón aguacatero -Berry en Michoacán".

Women, economic resilience, gender norms in a time of climate change: what do we know?

Cathy Farnworth Anne Rietveld Rachel Voss Angela Meentzen (2023, [Artículo])

This literature delves into 82 research articles, published between 2016 and 2022, to develop a deep understanding of how women manage their lives and livelihoods within their agrifood systems when these systems are being affected, sometimes devastatingly, by climate change. The Findings show that four core gender norms affect the ability of women to achieve economic resilience in the face of climate change operate in agrifood production systems. Each of these gender norms speaks to male privilege: (i) Men are primary decision-makers, (ii) Men are breadwinners, (iii) Men control assets, and (iv) Men are food system actors. These gender norms are widely held and challenge women’s abilities to become economically resilient. These norms are made more powerful still because they fuse with each other and act on multiple levels, and they serve to support other norms which limit women’s scope to act. It is particularly noteworthy that many institutional actors, ranging from community decision-makers to development partners, tend to reinforce rather than challenge gender norms because they do not critically review their own assumptions.

However, the four gender norms cited are not hegemonic. First, there is limited and intriguing evidence that intersectional identities can influence women’s resilience in significant ways. Second, gender norms governing women’s roles and power in agrifood systems are changing in response to climate change and other forces, with implications for how women respond to future climate shocks. Third, paying attention to local realities is important – behaviours do not necessarily substantiate local norms. Fourth, women experience strong support from other women in savings groups, religious organisations, reciprocal labour, and others. Fifth, critical moments, such as climate disasters, offer potentially pivotal moments of change which could permit women unusually high levels of agency to overcome restrictive gender norms without being negatively sanctioned. The article concludes with recommendations for further research.

Necessity as a driver in bending agricultural gender norms in the Eastern Gangetic Plains of South Asia

Pragya Timsina Emma Karki Brendan Brown (2023, [Artículo])

The majority of the farmers in the rural Global South continue to depend directly or indirectly on agriculture for their livelihoods. Despite the fact that women account for almost half of the world's farmers, they face gender-specific challenges such as deeply rooted cultural and social norms that limit their access to land, assets, financial markets, agricultural training, and information. Using semi-structured interviews with farmers in the Eastern Gangetic Plains, this study investigates how necessity is becoming one of the major drivers in the bending of agricultural gender norms. The study investigates the connections between feminist political ecology and agricultural technology production frameworks in order to comprehend the implications of technology adoption and influences on gender norms in communities. Women's participation in agriculture was found to be heavily influenced by social and cultural barriers, and they were frequently subjected to social criticism for breaking the systemic gender norms. This paper emphasizes on the growing pattern of bending gender norms with recommendations for increasing women's participation and scope in future agriculture development initiatives through policies and interventions that emphasize gender equity.

Panorama de la desaparición de personas en Guerrero, 2015-2021.

GABINO SOLANO RAMIREZ (2023, [Artículo])

This work offers a general overview of the disappearance of persons in Guerrero during the period 2015- 2021 seen from the reports published in the local press, and some national media. The objective is to make visible this serious social problem, considered a crime against humanity and of the greatest concern for families and citizens who perceive the feeling of impunity and insecurity. The study follows up on basic indicators of the victims of disappearance, such as the modality (kidnapping, uprising, confrontation, and home invasion), general characteristics of the victims, alleged perpetrators, places and circumstances of the event. Considering the phenomenon as a public issue, the work aims to raise awareness among the population and institutional structures to motivate the generation of strategies to help prevent these disappearances.
