Gendered Ideologies and Authoritarianism in Nicaragua
Although anti-feminist discourses and practices are often associated with "right-wing" governments, self-proclaimed "leftist" regimes can also be organized around patriarchal ideas. In this article, I analyze how the Ortega-Murillo regime in Nicaragua has employed gendered ideologies to consolidate and legitimate its political power. While the Ortega-Murillo regime initially used elite pact-making to gain control of Nicaragua's legal institutions…
Shifting Social Support
This article analyzes how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted the pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum experiences of Mexican-American women living at the U.S.–Mexico border, with an emphasis on participants’ perceptions of different forms of social support: material, emotional, and informational. Drawing on in-depth interviews with 22 Mexican-American women in Laredo, Texas, we show how pandemic-related changes reduced participants’ extensive social…

The Limits of the Law
If It’s Not Femicide, It’s Still Murder”
Nicaragua has the dubious distinction of being one of the only countries in the world that has intentionally weakened its existing legislation penalizing the crime of femicide ( femicidio), the murder of women due to their gender. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork and content analysis of over 250 newspaper articles, this study examines how these legal changes occurred and their implications for women’s access to legal justice in Nicaragua. Throug…
The Making and Unmaking of Feminicidio/Femicidio Laws in Mexico and Nicaragua
This article examines the contested process of law-making related to the killing of women which resulted in the criminalization of feminicide (feminicidio) and femicide (femicidio) in Mexico and Nicaragua, two countries in which feminists engaged in legal activism to increase state accountability for gendered violence. Through comparative analysis, we demonstrate the importance of (1) the interaction between shifting local political conditions an…
Gender-based violence and the patrimonial state in Nicaragua
For the last several decades, a global ideological struggle has been taking place between organizations and institutions that promote women’s rights and a parallel countermovement of conservative and religious groups defending so-called “family values”. The recent political struggle over gender-violence law in Nicaragua is a microcosm of these dynamics. In 2012, the Nicaraguan government passed its most comprehensive law on gender-based violence …
Transnational Governance, Local Politics, and Gender Violence Law in Nicaragua
Many Latin American countries have passed laws intended to address femicide and other forms of violence against women. Yet the implementation of these laws has been inconsistent at best. This article analyzes the case of Nicaragua, which passed a comprehensive law on gender-based violence (Law 779) in 2012. While celebrated by local women's organizations, Law 779 was subsequently weakened through a series of legislative reforms and executive decr…
When Laws Are Not Enough
Despite the passage of numerous laws in Latin America, impunity in domestic violence cases remains a serious concern throughout the region. This article draws on feminist theories of the state to analyze how the routine practices of low-level state bureaucrats impact women's experiences navigating legal institutions in urban Nicaragua. Drawing on ten months of ethnographic fieldwork and in-depth interviews, I show how, contrary to theories of rep…
Toxic Talk and Collective (In)action in a Company Town
The dynamics of contaminated communities have become an increasingly important area of research with the rise of environmental hazards worldwide. While much is known about communities that unite to protest toxic conditions, places where such mobilization has not occurred are far less frequently studied. Drawing on five months of ethnographic research, this article examines one such community (La Oroya) in Peru that is plagued by dangerously high …

The Gendered Burden of Development in Nicaragua
The recent political 'left turn' in Latin America has led to an increased emphasis on social policy and poverty alleviation programs aimed at women. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork and interviews in a rural village in Nicaragua, I argue that one of the consequences of such programs is an increase in women's daily workload, which I call the gendered burden of development. By exploiting women's unpaid community care labor, these non-governmental …
