The expansion of married womens property rights was a main achievement of the first wave of feminism in Latin America. As Carmen Diana Deeere and Magdalena Leon reveal, however, the disjuncture between rights and actual ownership remains vast. This is particularly true in rural areas, where the distribution of land between men and women is highly unequal. In their pioneering, twelvecountry comparative study, the authors argue that property ownership is directly related to womens bargaining power within the household and community, point out changes resulting from recent genderprogressive legislation, and identify additional areas for future reform, including inheritance rights of wives.
