N2  - Examines women's participation, representation and leadership in three areas of political life in Latin America: government, politics, and civil society.  Notes that while women are making progress in ascending to leadership positions their numbers remain low, and still lag far behind women's gains in other areas of society.  Provides fresh analysis of a new trend in the region toward using quotas for increasing the numbers of women in leadership positions
