          Abstract

          RESUMEN La investigación subnacional en América Latina ha establecido que en los países de la región las condiciones de vida están fuertemente determinadas por el lugar de residencia. Pero a pesar de estos avances, sabemos muy poco sobre cómo lo subnacional interactúa con otros atributos como género, raza y ruralidad para producir un paisaje diverso de desventajas y privilegios. Este artículo utiliza el enfoque de la interseccionalidad para mostrar las enormes diferencias en analfabetismo e inasistencia a escuela entre grupos compuestos por distintas combinaciones de dichos atributos en Perú, Colombia y Chile. Para entender mejor el efecto de la dimensión subnacional en esas diferencias, el artículo aplica la descomposición Oaxaca-Blinder e identifica qué porción de las brechas regionales se debe a distintas composiciones demográficas entre las regiones. Los anteriores análisis motivan una reflexión teórica sobre la naturaleza de la desigualdad subnacional que se basa en distinguir un componente composicional y otro interseccional e identificar posibles causales de ambos.

          ABSTRACT Subnational research in Latin America has established that living conditions in the region's countries are strongly determined by place of residence. However, despite these advances, we know very little about how the subnational dimension interacts with other attributes such as gender, race, and rurality to produce a diverse landscape of disadvantage and privilege. This article uses the intersectionality approach to show the enormous differences in illiteracy and school non-attendance among groups composed of different combinations of these attributes in Peru, Colombia, and Chile. To better understand the effect of the subnational dimension on these differences, the article applies the Oaxaca-Binder decomposition and identifies what portion of the regional gaps is due to different demographic compositions across regions. This analysis motivates a theoretical reflection on the nature of subnational inequality based on distinguishing a compositional and an intersectional component and identifying possible causal factors of both.

          The problem with the phrase women and minorities: intersectionality-an important theoretical framework for public health.

          Intersectionality is a theoretical framework that posits that multiple social categories (e.g., race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status) intersect at the micro level of individual experience to reflect multiple interlocking systems of privilege and oppression at the macro, social-structural level (e.g., racism, sexism, heterosexism). Public health's commitment to social justice makes it a natural fit with intersectionality's focus on multiple historically oppressed populations. Yet despite a plethora of research focused on these populations, public health studies that reflect intersectionality in their theoretical frameworks, designs, analyses, or interpretations are rare. Accordingly, I describe the history and central tenets of intersectionality, address some theoretical and methodological challenges, and highlight the benefits of intersectionality for public health theory, research, and policy.

              Intersectionality's Definitional Dilemmas

              The term intersectionality references the critical insight that race, class, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, nation, ability, and age operate not as unitary, mutually exclusive entities, but rather as reciprocally constructing phenomena. Despite this general consensus, definitions of what counts as intersectionality are far from clear. In this article, I analyze intersectionality as a knowledge project whose raison d'être lies in its attentiveness to power relations and social inequalities. I examine three interdependent sets of concerns: (a) intersectionality as a field of study that is situated within the power relations that it studies; (b) intersectionality as an analytical strategy that provides new angles of vision on social phenomena; and (c) intersectionality as critical praxis that informs social justice projects.
