This article describes the collaboration between an artist, an anthropologist, and the people of San Luis, a small town in the mountains of Costa Rica. When asked how the authors could “give back” to the community, which regularly hosts students and academic researchers, representatives of the community requested that stories of women in the community be told, not simply collected. Using oral history and photography, the authors worked with local women to create an exhibit that is permanently installed in the town and also tours the U.S. The project reflected a community desire for global conn

This article analyzes the willingness to pay of Costa Rican consumers for three environmental certifications in the coffee market, namely, Carbon Neutral, Fairtrade, and ISO 14001. A face-to-face survey was applied to 1191 Costa Rican inhabitants. The results show that Costa Rican consumers are willing to pay price premiums around 30% for all the considered environmental certifications. In addition, a Cragg’s hurdle model shows that household income, the level of education, and environmental or community activism increase the likelihood of consumers paying price premiums for environmental cert

Abstract:
The patriarchal system has convinced most that women’s respectable place and function are exclusively within the private space of the home. When women ‘transgress’ and venture out into the public sphere by choice or by force, the reception is far from welcoming both by individuals and institutions. The analysis seeks to enquire, based on women of African descent history, how this ideology affects their participation in the public sphere. The main objective is to unearth and make visible some of the informal financial activities women were involved in during the 20th century in Port of Limon, C

The whole of mainland America south of Canada obtained independence in the half-century 1776-1826, and that is reflected in the writings of this variety of Latin American and Caribbean women authors.

AbstractIn Fabienne Kanor’s Humus and Yolanda Arroyo Pizarro’s las Negras, the slave ship constitutes a landmark that combines space and time: a chronotope, as Paul Gilroy articulates in The Black Atlantic. A liminal site both catalyst and witness to the collision between distinct worlds, the slave ship represents in the Afrodiasporic imaginary a new point of origin marked by colonial attempts of ontological and epistemic annihilation. Nevertheless, this motif holds the promise of renewal through a reconfiguration of spacetime that forges unforeseen alliances and fuels sociopolitical struggle.

Social investment in Latin America is increasing in some countries but not others. Has social investment gained any traction in the region? If so, how does it vary across Latin America? Also, how salient are social investment reforms? To answer these questions empirically, this chapter maps welfare reform strategies across four countries: Colombia (1992–2017), Costa Rica (1986–2017), Nicaragua (1985–2017), and Uruguay (1985–2017). The authors find that compensatory reforms (basic income and social protection) are more salient than social investment. They also find that most social investment r

It analyses the protest literature of this period written by three key authors: Quince Duncan, Carmen Naranjo, and Alfonso Chase. Firstly considering Duncan’s Los cuatro espejos, it explores this novel as an example of the harmful practices of stereotyping and the internalisation of norms. It then considers the feminist subtext of Naranjo’s short stories ‘Simbiosis del encuentro’ and ‘A los payasos todos los quieren’, before moving

Costa Rican children’s literature has flourished over the last half century and continues to broaden the spectrum of inclusion in the national self-image by confronting gender issues, sexist stereotypes, ableist expectations, and colonial paradigms.

Abstract The Costa Rica experiment finds an absence of traditional gendered leadership templates. Women are viewed as leaders for cabinet posts and as legislators, capable in masculine policy areas, and able to win votes. Participants evaluate candidates significantly more favorably when the party name is not present on the speech, and when the candidate is from their preferred party. In Costa Rica, women appear to “look like the norm” for candidates for both male and female participants and across family situations and social classes.
