Monograph: Gender Differences in Linguistic Beliefs and Usage

2025-05-08

The perception that women and men use language differently has been documented as far back as ancient Greece and Rome. However, it wasn’t until the mid-20th century that these differences began to be studied scientifically. The year 1952, when the first issue of Orbis was published entirely dedicated to women’s speech, is often considered the starting point for various studies in the fields of dialectology, ethnography of communication, and sociolinguistics (Calero Fernández, 2007).

No 27 (2024): Feminist Analyses of Tourism: Thoughts from the South

Tourism, one of the most important economic activities in the contemporary world, has been promoted as a driver of development that fosters job creation, cultural integration, and the expansion of local economies. However, beneath this façade of progress and growth, structures persist that reproduce and deepen historical and contemporary inequalities. Among these, gender disparities stand out as one of the main challenges faced by this globalized industry. This monograph, Feminist Analyses of Tourism: Thoughts from the South, aims to examine these dynamics from a critical, feminist, and intersectional perspective.
