Gender, Health, and Society in Contemporary Latin America and the Caribbean takes a multilayered approach to the contemporary peoples of Latin America, the Caribbean, and Latinx peoples in the greater diaspora. Central to this edited collection, and critical to its creative significance and contribution, is the conceptual unification of gendered health, the embodiment of identity, societal structures, and social inequality, and the ways in which gender, health, and society intersect daily. By emphasizing the complex ways in which gender and health intersect in Latin America, the contributors to this collection offer a more detailed look at how gender embodies health inequities in these populations and how societal woes impact and constrain gendered bodies in public spheres.
Ronnie Shepard is adjunct professor at Eastern Connecticut State University, Goodwin College, and the University of Connecticut.
Shir Lerman Ginzburg is project director in the Department of Pediatrics and the Preventive Intervention Research Center for Child Health (PIRC) at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine.
