Mexican Gender Studies and the American University

The burgeoning Mexican-American and Hispanic populations in the United States are reflected in demands that universities give more attention to Mexican studies. Given the similar demand that gender studies be given much more serious attention by academia, one would think Chicana or Mexican-American women's studies would have come into their own. In actual fact, research and teaching interest in Chicano or Mexican-American male issues has not been accompanied by the allocation of similar resources to Chicana studies. The background to this and the general situation of Mexican gender studies in the American higher education deserve more consideration than they have received
