El tema de la eugenesia contribuye a la construcción de una versión equilibrada de la memoria histórica, ya que los efectos adversos del uso político del movimiento de la higiene racial, defendido por representantes de ideologías opuestas, la reformista Hildegard Rodríguez y el ultraconservador Antonio Vallejo Nágera, demuestran el potencial de las teorías sobre la selección genética para anular el propósito objetivo de las ciencias.</p> Mar Martínez Góngora Copyright (c) 2026 https://ojs.msupress.org/index.php/REGS/article/view/8643 Mon, 08 Jun 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Men in Dresses: Cross-dressing and Camp in Juan Rana muger and Paquita Salas https://ojs.msupress.org/index.php/REGS/article/view/7584 <p>The use of male cross-dressing in Gerónimo Cáncer y Velasco’s entremés Juan Rana muger (1676) and Netflix’s Paquita Salas (2016-19) reflects Spanish beliefs about gender roles in disparate eras. Drawing on definitions of camp by Esther Newton and Jonathan Dollimore, I argue that both works employ gender play through theatricality, incongruity, and humor to different ends. Juan Rana muger reinscribes patriarchy through a vengeful wife, while Paquita Salas aligning with the LGBTQI+ community, reveals the absurdity of gender constructs. The works illustrate how the cross-dressing trope and gender ideologies in Spain have evolved and how they have remained static.</p> Matt Peisen Copyright (c) 2026 https://ojs.msupress.org/index.php/REGS/article/view/7584 Mon, 08 Jun 2026 00:00:00 -0400 "Cola de lagartija" and "Estrógenos": Sex, Gender and Feminist Dystopia in Argentina https://ojs.msupress.org/index.php/REGS/article/view/7762 <p>Dystopian literature provide a cultural map of the values and fears held by society. These texts offer an analysis of the flaws currently embedded in the culture that would enable oppression. Ironically, these texts also locate the areas of resistence and subversion. Feminists dystopian texts give primacy to issues concerned with the struggle over bodily autonomy. In addition, Latin American female authors ponder the effects of late capitalism. Argentinean authors Luisa Valenzuela and Leticia Martin offer two constrasting points in the continuum of dystopian literature regarding the dangers of transgressing traditional sex and gender roles and autoritarianism.</p> Leticia I Romo Copyright (c) 2026 https://ojs.msupress.org/index.php/REGS/article/view/7762 Mon, 08 Jun 2026 00:00:00 -0400
