Traducir en una forma que apoya la igualdad : -buscando un lenguaje no sexista / Translation as a way of supporting equality : -in search for the gender-neutral language

Sunesson, Malin January 2015 (has links)
The present paper treats translation difficulties arising in the area of language and gender in the translation work from Spanish into Swedish of the article “Radiografía del posfemismo” published in El país semanal 2013. The investigation focuses on how translation can be made avoiding the use of expressions that residues from patriarchal language, with the intention to use a language as neutral in gender as possible. To delimit the paper the focus lays on specific linguistic expressions not exhibiting neutrality: the impersonal gramatical form and the Spanish form of  inclusive gender.   The results show that to translate the impersonal form, that in Swedish often is expressed with the male biased pronoun man, you can rewrite the entire phrase, using for example the passive voice, or, depending on the pragmatic context, use the neutral pronoun en, avoinding the use of man. The conclusions are also that the translation of the Spanish inclusive gender ought to be made using primary a neutral expression, and only emphasize on the gender if it is needed in the target text, adding for example the adjective female/male.

Empowering Peace: The Relationship Between Women's Participation in Peace Negotiations and Gender-Inclusive Truth and Reconciliation Commissions

Ronderos, Katherine January 2024 (has links)
This thesis examines how women's participation in peace negotiations impacts the gender inclusivity of Truth and Reconciliation Commissions (TRCs) in Côte d'Ivoire, Liberia, and Colombia. It explores whether higher degrees of women's involvement led to more gender-inclusive TRCs, hypothesising that increased participation results in better integration of gender considerations. Using secondary data and primary interviews from Colombia, the study highlights political pressure as a key causal mechanism. Findings reveal that in Côte d'Ivoire, significant grassroots activism by women without formal negotiation roles led to moderate gender inclusivity in the TRC. In Liberia, limited formal participation in peace negotiations, combined with strong grassroots advocacy and post-conflict decision-making roles for women, resulted in a highly gender-inclusive TRC. In Colombia, women's formal involvement in peace negotiations, alongside continuous advocacy by women’s organisations, led to over 100 gender-specific provisions in the peace agreement, fostering a robust gender-inclusive TRC. These results partially support the hypothesis, showing that higher women's participation generally leads to more gender-inclusive TRCs. The research underscores the importance of institutionalising gender perspectives, leveraging political pressure, and ensuring international support to achieve inclusive and sustainable peace processes. It offers practical insights for enhancing gender inclusivity in transitional justice mechanisms like TRCs.
