Inclusión digital en América Latina : ¿Dónde y cómo habitan el ciberespacio las mujeres?

Tania Meneses Cabrera, Universidad Nacional Abierta y a Distancia

Sinopsis

The book addresses the issue of digital inclusion from a gender perspective. Although it is an essay book, it applies an exhaustive documentary review, the analysis of public policy discourse and current discussions in the field of cyberculture in its argumentation. It is the result of several research and academic experiences on the matter with the Laboratorio de la Historia Global del Ciberespacio (LAGHCIB - Lab. Global History & Cyberspace) Network. It also provides a context of the technological transformation, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on women’s lives, and the historical framework in the access to technology, an inequality that, together with other historical disadvantages, leads to digital gaps, mainly in the way of knowing and describing the world. From an interpretation of governmentality, this text presents an archaeological analysis of the ICT public policies, and then interconnects it with cognitive capitalism and cultural colonialism theories as structural factors of such inequality. The book aims to understand these emerging complexities as part of the search for alternatives and ways to use technology to promote participation and good living. It is a critical and reflective look at cyberculture from a gender perspective that is ethically, geographically and politically located in Latin America and is part of a path of research, experiences and understandings that the author considers useful to contribute to science, technology and society in the field of gender studies.
