Citation Guidelines and Bibliography
This dossier aims to explore and analyze the history of gender in Latin America and the Caribbean from the modern era to the present, focusing on the diversity of women's experiences and roles. In it, we seek to highlight women's agency in the economic, social, cultural, and political life of Latin America and the Caribbean diachronically.
The dossier is framed within a broad chronology with the aim of reflecting the active role women played in Latin America and the Caribbean, thereby contributing to a more complete understanding of their history. In this way, we promote a more inclusive and integrated view of colonial and postcolonial societies. Through an interdisciplinary, focused, or comparative approach, the included works will seek to offer new perspectives on the understanding of the roles and contributions of women in history from different regions of Latin America and the Caribbean, with the aim of promoting a broad and rich dialogue that combines methods and theories from disciplines such as history, art history, anthropology, archaeology, social sciences, performing arts, and philology, among others.
This work seeks to highlight the contributions and challenges faced by women who played a decisive role in building networks of influence, dependency, and even patronage. These women, such as mestizo, Indigenous, and Afro-descendant women, contributed to the development and transformation of society and culture in Latin America and the Caribbean, including their impact on the economy, politics, society, culture, and religion.
Ultimately, this dossier not only seeks to contribute to academic knowledge about the history of women in Latin America and the Caribbean, but also seeks to highlight the importance of continuing to research and discuss these issues today.
Those interested in submitting articles for the next issue can do so through our web platform by registering as an "Author" and attaching their article at the same time. Those already registered on the platform can submit their article from their profile.
We also remind you that we have an "Open Forum" section, which welcomes contributions with a different theme than the monograph; "About," a space dedicated to articles that derive from the theoretical implementation of new concepts but that have practical implications; and a section for reviews.
The deadline for submissions for the next issue is February 28, 2026, and we would be very grateful for your collaboration.
