This is an impressive book. A must read for all those interested in knowing more about the challenges confronted by disadvantaged groups in Chile, and particularly for those who want to study the subject from a legal perspective. The book brings together the analysis of young and prominent social scientists offering lucid and critical approaches to the topic.

The book offers a highly readable empirical account of feminist, LGTB, indigenous, and workers' political struggles in Chile, combined with a clear and accessible theoretical reflection on the idea of citizenship and the roots of the Chilean constitution. It is a privileged window for the world to look into Chilean society, and an inspiration for academics in Spanish speaking countries where no such window exists.

This book introduces some of the main issues of social movements' agendas in a critical, informed, and convincing manner. It should be of interest to all those who are interested in what is happening in Chile in general in matters of human rights and for those who are interested in specific issues such as gender, multiculturalism and poverty. Without a doubt a great contribution.
