Institutional features of the African setting-large extended families and imperfect credit and land markets-matter to the equity and efficiency roles played by intergenerational linkages. Using original survey data on Senegal that include an individualized measure of consumption, this paper studies the role played by land inheritance, other bequests and parental background as influences on an adult's economic welfare and economic activities. Although intergenerational linkages are evident, the analysis finds a seemingly high degree of mobility across generations, associated with the shift from farm to non-farm sectors and the greater economic activity of women. Male-dominated bequests of land and housing bring little gain to mean consumption and play little role in explaining inequality, although they have effects on the sector of activity. Inheritance of non-land assets and the education and occupation of parents (especially the mother) and their choices about children's schooling are more important to adult welfare than property inheritance. Significant gender inequality in consumption is evident, although it is almost entirely explicable in terms of factors such as education and (non-land) inheritance. There are a number of other pronounced gender differences, with intergenerational linkages coming through the mother rather than the father.

Drawing on revealing, in-depth interviews, Cecilia Menjívar investigates the role that violence plays in the lives of Ladina women in eastern Guatemala, a little-visited and little-studied region. While much has been written on the subject of political violence in Guatemala, Menjívar turns to a different form of suffering-the violence embedded in institutions and in everyday life so familiar and routine that it is often not recognized as such. Rather than painting Guatemala (or even Latin America) as having a cultural propensity for normalizing and accepting violence, Menjívar aims to develop an approach to examining structures of violence-profound inequality, exploitation and poverty, and gender ideologies that position women in vulnerable situations- grounded in women's experiences. In this way, her study provides a glimpse into the root causes of the increasing wave of feminicide in Guatemala, as well as in other Latin American countries, and offers observations relevant for understanding violence against women around the world today.

"Un devoir d'insoumission nous incombe, à l'intérieur de nous-mêmes et à l'encontre des formes de servitude qui ont conduit à cet accablement" : l'appel que ce petit livre avait lancé en 2005 semble avoir été entendu. En témoigne l'élan révolutionnaire qui s'est fait jour en Tunisie et qui se propage dans l'ensemble du monde arabe. Surtout, les analyses et les propositions que ce texte avançait se trouvent confirmées : c'est une libération du paradigme identitaire qui est à l'oeuvre aujourd'hui. On peut donc aborder ce livre comme un commentaire de ce qui a rendu nécessaire les insurrections d'aujourd'hui, sans toutefois perdre de vue que des soulèvements, si massifs soient-ils, des chutes de tyrans, si spectaculaires soient-elles, ne suffisent pas à faire révolution. Les changements désirés vont rencontrer des résistances conscientes et inconscientes que les sociétés arabes devront affronter à nouveaux frais, telle que la place de l'islam, enjeu central de la guerre qui se déroule depuis une trentaine d'années en son nom. Et qui demeure central avant, et pendant les processus de transition démocratique.
