Dedicated rural teachers are assigned to some of the most remote communities in Mexico, and frequently spend years living away from their homes and families while teaching. Drawing on agentive women's narratives, this ethnographic study explores how the acquisition of schooling and employment empowers maestras to defenderse (take care of themselves and their loved ones), make informed personal decisions, and promote societal change by serving as role models for their students, relatives, and neighbors." -- Publisher's description 650 0 $a Women teachers $z Oaxaca Valley $z Oaxaca Valley $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Education and state $z Oaxaca Valley. $z Oaxaca Valley. 650 0 $a Women teachers $z Oaxaca Valley $z Oaxaca Valley $v Biography. 650 0 $a Social change $z Oaxaca Valley. $z Oaxaca Valley. 650 0 $a Power (Social sciences) $z Oaxaca Valley. $z Oaxaca Valley. 651 0 $a Oaxaca Valley (Mexico) $x Social life and customs. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Howell, Jayne, $t Women teachers of rural Oaxaca $d Lanham, Maryland : Lexington Books, [2023] $z 9781666904130 $w (DLC) 2022054383 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240502013555.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=09E6AF76DABF11EEBE8532184BECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
