This article will examine how the complex personal and political component of the lived experience of prolonged warfare became articulated in the gender politics of the electoral campaign. It is important to understand the ideological struggle of the 1990 election campaign that centered on the construction of a peace candidate within an analysts of gender ideology and militarization. The Sandinista media strategy did not effectively identify women's problems nor concern for the future within its iconography. The images of women were either auxiliary, passive, or victimized. In terms of sexuality, the conservative gender ideology of the new regime is attempting to redefine this terrain in both the public and private spheres. It has cut sexual education from school curricula and media programming, and has promoted an anti-abortion public forum In terms of state policy, the new regime is clearly anti-choice in terms of women's demands to legalize abortion and will not support legislation that challenges women's subordinate role in society.
