Description

Explore the complex relationship between identity and safety in this academic study from Manchester University Press. Naming Security - Constructing Identity: 'Mayan-Women' in Guatemala on the Eve of 'Peace' offers a deep look into how individuals seek security through their sense of self. By focusing on the voices of Mayan women, the author examines how insecurity functions at the intersection of competing identity claims. This work re-considers the connections between security, subjectivity, and identity by looking at how these women speak about security within the different contexts of their lives. This book provides a provocative analysis that questions the standard narratives of security found in the modern paradox of sovereignty. It is an essential resource for those studying conflict analysis, gender studies, and Central American history, offering a new perspective on how identity shapes our understanding of safety and peace.
