The research analyzes the practices and perceptions of symbolic violence among rural women in the commune of San Juan de la Costa, located in the province of Osorno, in southern Chile. Drawing on the ideas of Pierre Bourdieu, it is understood that this type of violence operates silently through everyday gestures and practices that often go unnoticed but reinforce the subordination of women and maintain entrenched inequalities in areas such as family, school, and work. Within the context analyzed, these dynamics are more profound due to geographical isolation, the persistence of cultural traditions, educational limitations, the burden of care within the home, and the lack of public policies adapted to this territory. Methodologically, the research was conducted using a qualitative approach, with semi-structured interviews to gather as much relevant information as possible from their life stories. An observation guide was also used during field visits, and direct observation was carried out on site to identify women who met the study criteria. The results show that women tend to internalize inequality as part of their “natural order,” accepting different forms of devaluation and exclusion as normal. The influence of family, religion, school dynamics, and the amito was identified in the reproduction of discourses that justify male authority and diminish the female voice. Challenges for Social Work were also identified, including the urgent need for interventions with an ethnic focus, community support, strengthening of formal networks within the sector, and management of viable public policies designed for this vulnerable group. The study concludes that symbolic violence in rural areas is a structural phenomenon that requires contextualized public policies, sustained prevention strategies, and an interdisciplinary approach that allows for the transformation of the cultural foundations that sustain inequality

This research proposes a fresh perspective on gender representation in the political discourse of the February 2025 electoral campaign in Tungurahua. The study stems from the need to understand how language, along with the images used by candidates, continues to reproduce social perceptions of femininity and masculinity in the context of political competition. The analysis is framed within a scenario where the participation of both women and men remains marked by symbolic gaps, stereotypes, and power struggles, making it urgent to examine the communicative mechanisms that underpin them. Furthermore, the research articulates both a semiotic and semantic approach, drawing on the contributions of Latin American authors who study discourse, political communication, and gender studies. Additionally, a qualitative analysis methodology was employed, centered on observation matrices, categories of discourse analysis, and critical reading of visual material disseminated on social media, with an emphasis on the communicative congruence between verbal and nonverbal elements. The results show that distinct patterns persist for candidates: while men are associated with effectiveness, authority, and management, women are linked to approachability, sensitivity, and community, limiting their discursive scope. Furthermore, a strategic use of imagery reinforces traditional roles, even when some candidates introduce elements of disruption. The research demonstrates that gender representation in campaigns is not a neutral reflection, but rather a structured process of political signification that directly influences public perception. Therefore, understanding this process paves the way for more equitable communication practices and a greater impact on society

Violence against women and girls is one of the most pervasive human rights violations worldwide. Cases occur daily across the globe, with severe physical, economic, and psychological consequences for women and girls, both in the short and long term, hindering their full and equal participation in society. The impact of this violence, on individuals, families, and society as a whole, is profound. One of the primary forms of violence against women is economic and financial violence, which encompasses a range of behaviors, including denying access to economic resources, destroying material goods, withholding personal property, restricting access to bank accounts or savings, damaging property, or forcing the victim to rely economically on the perpetrator.Notably, regulations in Ecuador and many Latin American and Caribbean countries aim to prevent and eradicate this form of violence. In Ecuador, such acts are penalized as offenses through an expedited procedure outlined in the Organic Law to Prevent and Eradicate Violence against Women (LOPVEM) and the Comprehensive Organic Criminal Code (COIP). The methodology employed to study economic and financial violence involved analyzing and describing specific social behaviors classified as malicious acts under the law and subject to punishment. Data sources included technological tools, scientific articles, books, judicial decisions, legal regulations, and interviews with prosecutors, judges, and lawyers involved in the justice system to understand the challenges and applicability of gender-sensitive protocols in prosecuting economic and financial violence.
La raza humana siembra colonias y los otros cosechan el caos: un análisis más allá de la narrativa Alien, el octavo pasajero (Ridley Scott)

The final paper presents a critical analysis of the film Alien, the Eighth Passenger (1979), directed by Ridley Scott, focusing on the representation of philosophical and social concepts such as alterity, anthropocentrism, posthumanism, and the role of women in science fiction cinema. Using a qualitative-hermeneutic approach, the study examines how the film portrays the figure of the "Other," symbolized by the xenomorph, and how it challenges the centrality of humanity in the universe, highlighting human fragility in the face of the unknown. The movie also questions traditional hierarchical structures and anthropocentric ideas by presenting human characters as vulnerable and subordinated to uncontrollable biological and technological forces. A visual interpretation of key scenes, such as the reception of the alien signal, the exploration of planet LV-426, and the birth of the xenomorph, among others, is conducted to identify the symbolic meanings and ideological tensions present in the narrative. Additionally, the study focuses on the character of Ripley, who, by breaking traditional gender stereotypes, becomes a model of resistance not only physically but ideologically, transforming her role into one of empowerment in a predominantly male context.

In the 21st century, the presence of women in sports journalism, an area of great relevance within the media industry, is still a problem. Using the category of gender to characterize the sports field as a space of generic distinction where dominance is built around masculinity, we analyze how this model transcends in the representation of sports in the press, radio and television. This proposal was also born with the idea of investigating the knowledge of women's participation in sports journalism, which has been created exclusively to occupy roles that limit the opportunities to emerge in the different occupations within the radios in the city of Ambato, including the work of commentator or narrator in soccer games. The methodology used is quantitative, since 370 people (audience) who attend soccer games at the Bellavista stadium in the city of Ambato were surveyed, and interviews were conducted with journalists who have extensive experience in the area of sports journalism. Within the world of journalism, there are women who work in this area, the problem is when they want to get more involved with the media, many assume that this area of journalism should be exercised and led by men. The study on women in sports journalism and participation in the media states that the role of women in radio in soccer broadcasts is to perform commercial voice, field edge or simply fulfill interviews in sports programs, it was also found that it is important the inclusion of women journalists in different functions at the same rank as men, also because it was diagnosed that the audience has not heard many women performing activities in sports programs, there have been very few, yet they would like to hear women in the story or comments in official soccer matches. In short, in the city of Ambato and in different parts of Ecuador, there is still inequality in the field of sports journalism, either by the same stereotypes or simply discrimination. The representation of women in the media in Ambato shows a trend towards greater inclusion, although still insufficient compared to men. The inclusion of more women in these key roles would not only enrich the sports narrative but also contribute to a more just and balanced representation in Ambato's media.
Performance Drag Queen: El arte como escenario político

Currently, the concept of art has been diluted by multiple discourses of contemporary thought such as postmodernity, virtuality and technological advances, creating confusion about what art is. This has led to superficial imitations, falling into discourses of banality of the modern world. It is crucial to retake art as an artistic and political manifestation, its original definition. Art is not only a space where aesthetics of the beautiful, the ugly, the sublime or the abstract converge, but also a political space. This research highlights the need for an interdisciplinary dialogue in the Social Sciences, where thoughts about gender, subject, body vindication and communication converge, moving away from punitive and reductionist views that generate oppression and discrimination. This topic is relevant for the communicational debate and to open the dialogue on historically invisible scenarios. The methodological approach of the research is divided into two moments. The first is a theoretical and bibliographical tour to discuss the categories and concepts present, such as art, drag, performance and theater. This in order to build a solid epistemic route to reflect from communication on scenarios made invisible by historical, social and political conjunctures. In the second moment, a semiotic analysis of the performance presented by Larvarye during the "Dragada Por La Diversidad" is developed. In addition, interviews are conducted to obtain a greater wealth of information and to understand how drag art uses various elements to convey ideas. Queer and feminist theories question gender binarity and sexual norms, promoting the recognition of diverse identities as human rights. Semiotic analysis and interviews reveal that drag performance uses symbols to rethink and challenge social norms, becoming a tool for critical reflection and social transformation. Drag art is a testimony of resistance that addresses social, political and cultural issues, turning the body into a space of resistance and collective memory. Drag performance, as "artivism", opens a dialogue on inclusivity, social justice and rights, promoting greater empathy and understanding

Menstrual poverty is a term that refers to the lack of access to menstrual hygiene products, adequate infrastructure, basic services such as drinking water, sewage, and privacy itself. By not being clear about the origin of menstruation, society has been creating its own concepts around it, which translates into the perpetuation of beliefs and, with this, the attribution of negative characteristics to menstruation. Thus, menstruation begins to be analyzed from the perspective of public health, demonstrating the gender gaps in the care of problems related to menstruation and generating negative consequences for the physical and psychological health of women. From the perspective of social work, the line of research is social exclusion and integration, with the objective of determining the influence of menstrual poverty on public health. In a population of 337 female students of the Chillanes Educational Unit, through the application of the finite formula, a sample of 181 women was reached. Using a quantitative approach, an instrument consisting of 44 questions with a Likert-type scale was designed and subjected to an analysis of validity by expert judgment and reliability by means of Cronbach's alpha. In this way, it was determined that menstrual poverty influences public health. In addition, after studying the dimensions studied, the lack of knowledge, the physical and psychological affections of menstruation, and the problems in accessing adequate menstrual management were evident

The main intention of this research is to analyze LGBT+ cinematic narrative discourses in the films "Milk" (2008) and "Bros" (2022). Each selected film contains a context and ideology from its respective year, allowing for the examination of changes in the representation of the queer community in cinema. Two LGBT+ genre films are studied and analyzed to explore the different criteria and characteristics used to analyze this type of discourse, as well as gender perspectives and sexual diversity in popular culture. Thus, the methodology used in this research is critical discourse analysis based on Eiroa and Barranquero's approach. The research focuses on developing conceptual strategies to address the study's topic, such as characters and scenes. The aim is to determine how LGBT+ themes and other relevant elements are approached and how they relate to the dominant social discourses of their respective eras. As a result, this research concludes that the two films depict different stereotypes and prejudices. The homosexual community transitions from being portrayed with prejudices and a struggle for their rights to being exemplified with real and fitting issues, such as acceptance and internal and external discrimination within the homosexual world.

Gender violence is an alarming phenomenon that affects women all over the world. In Ecuador, and according to Fundación Aldea, a femicide occurs every 26 hours. In this context, the main aim of this research was to analyze the practices of normalization of gender violence in workers of a market in the province of Tungurahua. This research is made up of four chapters which are the following: Chapter 1 addresses the theoretical aspects of gender violence. Chapter 2 describes the methodology that was used and the methods used for the construction of data and analysis of information with a qualitative design. It was based on real stories and life stories and experiences of the studied cases. Chapter 3 presents the results obtained in the investigation. Finally, the conclusions of the study are presented, where the stories show a succession of violent events, all of them related to gender, others of a racial and institutional nature, where symbolic violence is the main protagonist. The contributions of this research are of vital importance, since the phenomenon of violence is addressed from a gender perspective and delves into the interpretive paradigm and in-depth analysis of the stories and life stories of the participants. This approach has permitted us to understand the processes that lead to the normalization of gender violence

ABSTRACT Children's cinema presents in its animated productions stereotypes and gender roles to children, who, feeling represented and identified by the characters, replicate their behaviors and actions in the society in which they are developing. Each animated film contains ideologies of the year in which it was created, that is why, in order to show the changes in the gender media discourse, two children's films are studied and analyzed: “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” (1937) and “Red Shoes and the seven dwarfs” (2019). The methodology used in this research is discourse analysis based on Patrick Charaudeau. An analysis matrix of the characters, of the scenes and a comparative matrix is used, all this to determine what are the stereotypes and gender roles presented by the characters, the media discourse that each film projects and finally the comparison between the two feature films to show if there is a positive change in the gender discourse. The main conclusion reached with this investigative work is that the two animations show completely different stereotypes and gender roles, where the woman goes from being the head of the household and dominated by men to being the heroine and adventure partner of the male characters.
