ZUNIGA ELIZALDE, Mercedes. Women Agricultural Workers in Northwestern Mexico: Subjective Transformations under Violent Circumstances. Sociológica (Méx.) [online]. 2018, vol.33, n.94, pp.107-137. ISSN 2007-8358.
The author of this article reflects about women agricultural workers’ transformative actions in certain towns in Northwestern Mexico in the face of the gender domination they live under, both at work and outside the workplace. She carried out collective interviews of women farmworkers in Baja California, Sonora, and Sinaloa. Her analysis focuses on the small, day-to-day acts of resistance through which they attempt to construct themselves as subjects who make decisions about their own lives in the context of the violence surrounding them. This unleashes complex, ambivalent steps forward and back in their gender condition both as women and as workers.
