Latin American Studies Association HaitiDominican Republic Section Isis Duarte Book PrizeFrom the rise of dictator Rafael Trujillo in the early 1930s through the twelveyear rule of his successor Joaqun Balaguer in the 1960s and 1970s, women are frequently absent or erased from public political narratives in the Dominican Republic. The Paradox of Paternalism shows how women proved themselves as skilled, networked, and nonthreatening agents, becoming indispensable to a carefully orchestrated national and international reputation. They garnered concrete political gains like suffrage and paved the way for their continued engagement with the politics of the Dominican state through intense periods of authoritarianism and transition.In this volume, Elizabeth Manley explains how women activists from across the political spectrum engaged with the state by working within both authoritarian regimes and interAmerican networks, founding modern Dominican feminism, and contributing to the rise of twentiethcentury women's liberation movements in the Global South. A volume in the series Latin American and Caribbean Arts and Culture, funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Publication of the paperback edition made possible by a Sustaining the Humanities through the American Rescue Plan grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.
