Journal of Undergraduate Research

According to the 2000 census report for the state of Utah, the state population included almost 87,883 foreign-born citizens from Latin America. In 1990 there were only 13,825. Compared with Asian-born citizens and other foreign-born citizens, this is the highest increase of an ethnic group of people in Utah. Three-fourths of these Latino foreign-born citizens are entering Utah from Mexico. These numbers don’t even include the native-born Mexicans that have grown up in Utah. All signs and research suggests that this trend will continue. Now, more than ever, it is important to ensure that Mexican immigrants have a place in …

Costa Rica And The "Electric Fence" Mentality: Stunting Women's Socio-Economic Participation In The 21st Century, Amy Osborne Aug 2013

Costa Rica And The "Electric Fence" Mentality: Stunting Women's Socio-Economic Participation In The 21st Century, Amy Osborne

Journal of International Women's Studies

Costa Rica is regarded as the “top democracy” in Latin America, exceeding basic developmental standards in most categories. The nation’s achievement is evidenced by women’s strong enrollment and retention rates within the nation’s education system. However, Costa Rica’s overwhelming gender disparity in the labor force reveals significant developmental deficiencies and contradicts fundamental democratic ideals. The pervasion of an “electric fence” mentality stunts women’s socio-economic engagement by restraining them to traditionally prescribed gender roles. To better understand women’s economic detachment, special attention must be paid to those institutional practices that perpetuate cultural norms and discriminatory tendencies. Costa Rica’s education system has …
