Carmela García

MUSAC presents a new project by the Canary Islands artist Carmela Garcia, hailed as one of the outstanding photographers in the Spanish and international art scene. Her ongoing inquiry into gender and identity, memory and space, takes here the form of an imaginary cartography of collective identity which takes us back to the rive guache of Paris between the wars. This exhibition springs from the aratist's thorough historical research to retrieve the reality of a group of wome whose lives and actions vitalised the social and cultural life of 1920s and 1930s Paris. The past merges with the present in this reconstruction and reinterpretation of female identities, and their re-association with the women and personalities of today.--Afterword.

Originally published in 1977, this book brings together what is known about liberal feminist and socialist movements for the emancipation of women all over the world in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It deals not only with Britain and the United States but also with Australia, New Zealand, France, Germany, Russia, Austria-Hungary and the Scandinavian countries. The chapters trace the origins, development, and eventual collapse of these movements in relation to the changing social formations and political structures of Europe, America and Australasia in the era of bourgeois liberalism. The first part of the book discusses the origins of feminist movements and advances a model or 'ideal type' description of their development. The second part then takes a number of case studies of individual feminist movements to illustrate the main varieties of organised feminism and the differences from country to country. The third part looks at socialist women's movements and includes a study of the Socialist Women's International. A final part touches on the reason for the eclipse of women's emancipation movements in the half-century following the end of the First World War, before a general conclusion pulls together some of the arguments advanced in earlier chapters and attempts a comparison between these feminist movements of 1840-1920 and the Women's Liberation Movement.

This paper reviews empirical and theoretical work on the links between banks and their governments (the bank-sovereign nexus). How significant is this nexus? What do we know about it? To what extent is it a source of concern? What is the role of policy intervention? The paper concludes with a review of recent policy proposals.
