A. KIM CLARK<br />
Clark examines women’s lives and<br />
gender ideologies in the Ecuadorian<br />
highlands in the first half <strong>of</strong> the<br />
twentieth century. She views four<br />
areas in which proper female<br />
behavior was debated and reimagined,<br />
by various social actors<br />
including women themselves: child<br />
welfare and mothering, prostitution<br />
and sexuality, midwifery, and nursing.<br />

Crisis <strong>of</strong> Liberalism<br />
in Argentina,<br />
1930–1955<br />
JORGE A. NÁLLIM<br />
Nállim examines the history <strong>of</strong><br />
liberalism in Argentina between the<br />
military coups <strong>of</strong> 1930, which<br />
ended the administration <strong>of</strong> Hipólito<br />
Yrigoyen, and 1955, which<br />
overthrew Juan Perón. He focuses<br />
on the changing meanings <strong>of</strong> the<br />
liberal ideology and its<br />
appropriation by different political,<br />
social, and intellectual actors.<br />

Afterlives <strong>of</strong><br />
Confinement<br />
Spatial Transitions in<br />
Post-Dictatorship <strong>Latin</strong> America<br />
SUSANA DRAPER<br />
Draper examines the transformation<br />
<strong>of</strong> prisons and detention centers<br />
into shopping malls, culturalcommercial<br />
centers, museums, and<br />
memorial sites, as symbols <strong>of</strong> the<br />
transitions from dictatorship to<br />
neoliberal democracy in Argentina,<br />
Chile, and Uruguay. By analyzing<br />
literary and architectural forms <strong>of</strong><br />
prisons' afterlives, she shows the<br />
questionable and unstable nature<br />
<strong>of</strong> dominant assumptions about the<br />
concept <strong>of</strong> "transition."<br />
