Naming Security - Constructing Identity: 'Mayan-Women' in Guatemala on the Eve of 'Peace'Manchester University Press, 2005 - 223 páginas Based on the experiences of Mayan women, Stern critically re-considers the connections between security, subjectivity and identity. By engaging in a careful reading of how Mayan women "speak" security in relation to the different contexts that inform their lives, she explores the multiplicity of both identity and security, and questions the main story of security imbedded in the modern "paradox of sovereignty." |
