Abstract

The paper highlights gender as a main force in the distribution of power and resources in the global economy. As more Latin American women join the labor force, men partake of a two-fold experience; while some are making gains as technicians and professionals, many more are working in jobs with characteristics formerly associated with female employment. As workforces reconfigure on the basis of gender, men and women confront new dilemmas about their proper roles in society.
