The document summarizes Karl Marx's view of the obstacles to the rise of capitalism and how they were overcome according to his work Capital Volume I. One obstacle was the economic structure of feudal society, which was overcome as elements of feudalism disintegrated. Another was the guild system, which people escaped from. As a result of these changes, people's means of production and guarantees under feudalism were taken away, harming many individuals. The rise of capitalism also involved the enslavement of workers and a change from feudal to capitalist exploitation. The disintegration of bands and monasteries pushed many into the proletariat while the theft of common lands increased the size of farms and the agricultural proletariat

This document discusses a case where a woman was denied a job opportunity at a positive psychology consulting firm because she did not attend a top 20 university, despite her relevant experience. The author argues this stance is wrong for three reasons:
1) A university degree alone does not determine someone's capabilities or likelihood of success. Personal characteristics matter more.
2) For most jobs, a degree is not directly relevant to the work, so it should not be the primary factor in hiring decisions.
3) Personal circumstances influence education paths but should not define career potential. Judging people solely on their university is unfair and fails to consider individual situations.

In this presentation, we will present you feminism and its actions in different periods, mainly in France but also in the world and we will discuss how important feminism is to change the place of women in society and mentalities.
The Zapatero Project. Chronicle of an Assault on Society [English]
Since 2004, the year in which he took office at the Presidential Palace, Rodriguez Zapatero has driven through an avalanche of laws, regulations and policies with a view to demolishing the basic institutions that make up our society and imposing his cultural project on the public as a whole. He has also sought to export his project to Latin America and other parts of the world.
However, Rodriguez Zapatero is not exactly an anomaly in the twenty-first century. Quite the contrary, in fact. He shares a common project with thinkers and politicians who are working in other countries to introduce an archetype of society similar to that proposed by Zapatero. They are the secularists, relativists, radical feminists, abortionists, representatives of the homosexual lobby and totalitarians of all stripes and colors. They have gained considerable ground in recent decades.
Changes in the roles of women since 1945 (II)
Women's roles in Spain have changed dramatically since 1945.
(1) In the early 20th century, women were largely confined to domestic duties and had few legal rights. (2) The two World Wars led to more women entering the workforce. (3) The Second Republic in the 1930s granted women new rights like divorce and voting. (4) However, the 1936-39 Civil War and Franco's dictatorship that followed severely restricted women's rights and roles. (5) Beginning in the 1960s, changes like increased education, work opportunities, and influence from Europe slowly modernized views of women and their place in society.

Gender lecture
This document provides an overview of gender history and discusses femininity, feminism, and masculinity in late 19th/early 20th century France. Some key points:
- Gender identities are fluid and change over time, influenced by social/historical contexts rather than biology alone.
- Early French feminists advocated for women's rights in a gradual manner, seeking small legal changes, while some like Auclert demanded full political equality.
- Masculinity was influenced by French defeat in 1870, with men feeling a need to prove virility and honor. Feminism challenged traditional gender roles and male dominance.
- By 1914 feminist achievements included new rights for married women but not yet the vote.
1930s context english as
The document discusses several Catholic documents from the 1930s including a papal encyclical by Pope Pius XI that prohibited artificial birth control and reaffirmed the prohibition on abortion. It also discusses how the 1937 Irish constitution recognized the "special position" of the Catholic Church and prohibited divorce, though these provisions were later removed. The document further discusses how Franco's regime in Spain after World War 2 suppressed dissident views and enforced traditional Catholic values and gender roles.
Feminism

5. The LGBT Movement- SameSex Relationships Fidelity , Domestic Violence and ...
This document discusses the rise of feminism and LGBT movements and their impact on traditional concepts of family and gender roles. It notes that second wave feminism from the 1960s rejected differences between genders and the nuclear family model. Fourth wave feminism further rejects the idea that one's identity is linked to their biology. Several quotes provide arguments that were used to promote feminism and LGBT rights, such as rejecting the role of women as mothers and wives, seeking to abolish the traditional family unit, and presenting same-sex relationships and non-binary gender identities as alternatives to traditional family structures. Concerns are also raised that these social changes have contributed to higher rates of family breakdown and relationship violence.
Talkin’ sex
The document discusses a 1983 project that interviewed 17 Mexican and Chicana women about their experiences with sexuality, pleasure, and discussing sex. It covered tensions in talking about sex, contradictions between acquiescence and contesting social norms, and the language and body language used. The project also discussed how Mexican culture was critiqued by feminists for repressing women's sexuality through concepts like the Virgin-Mary dichotomy and the Catholic Church's role in marriage. It provided interesting facts from the interviews like differences in age of first intercourse, views of sexuality education, and sanctions for sexual experimentation. The document aims to make connections between these topics and themes in the movie "Like Water for Chocolate."
