Dissertation note: Dissertation - Universität Bielefeld, 2019 Summary: This work analyses how women connected their political claims for housing with ‘the family’ as a political category in the configuration of urban spaces in Sinaloa, Mexico, during the mid-1970s and 1980s. Women challenged and reinforced the cultural and political significance of their subordination, while trying to fulfil their urgent housing needs, obtain a piece of land for their children and legalise their ownership of land. This co-generative relationship between women’s political participation and the family as a political category shows that the family was a crucial aspect of varying intensity and significance in the development of settlements. Women’s political involvement took place throughout their entire struggle to access housing: seizing land, organising new settlements and obtaining legal possession of their plots. Hence, women’s individual and collective experiences reveal a dynamic process of them becoming political subjects based on their claim for a piece of land for their families.PPN: PPN: 1683816056Package identifier: Produktsigel: GBV-18-NOL | ZDB-1-NOL | ZDB-1-NOLG | ZDB-1-NOZ | ZDB-1-NSW | ZDB-18-NOL | ZDB-18-NOZ | ZDB-18-NSW | GBV-18-NDS
