.... In this light the Radical period of Argentine history appears as but a mask for the continued rule of the oligarchy. The problem with such explanations, as Professor Peter Winn once cogently pointed out in the pages of this journal, was that they failed to answer the question of why the Sáenz Peña Law...

...Peter E. Winn On balance, this is a work of uneven utility. It is strongest when summarizing periods in which there has been good recent research, such as the early nineteenth century, and it is occasionally valuable for its discussion of a subject on which nothing serious has been written...

...Peter Winn The core of her research, however, is the three chapters on the main currents in Uruguay feminism between 1916 and 1933: middle-class liberal feminism; elite, conservative “Christian feminism”; and working-class socialist feminism. These chapters examine political parties...

...Wilkins B. Winn The author uses history as a setting for the examination of her hypotheses. To those interested in the emergence of lower-class solidarity movements in Colombia this study will be very useful. Certain items could have strengthened the work. The adaptive function...
