Resumo
The choice of the theme of the research was due to the Brazilian social-political scenario, marked by the coup of 2016 and from the escalation and rise to power of the far right, represented by Jair Messias Bolsonaro, current President of the Republic, who is trying to implement a neoliberal agenda on social and economic policies, frustrating the inclusion of progressive ideas in term of social minorities such as women, quilombolas, LGBTQI + populations and indigenous peoples. The election of 2018 was seen as the apex of a series of maneuvers performed to eliminate the fundamental guarantees and social rights of the constitutional text. This reality makes us wonder about the points of contact between the current Brazilian moment and the narrative of a dystopian novel called “The Handmaid's Tale” by Margareth Atwood and we questioned if we would be close to a democratic rupture as described in the book.Under this assumption, we tried to understand which events are shown in the book and what are their consequences for women, thinking about how, throughout history of humanity, the forms of domination of the female body, present in the book, are studied and set into practice by patriarchy and by capitalism. Facing the Brazilian reality, we seek to understand how discourses, laws, bills, class council resolutions would lead us to a constitutional and consequently democratic break, with more sensitive damages to women's rights, especially regarding the sexual division of labor and access to reproductive rights. From this problematic we try to identify how the dominating permanence of the female body is present in the national political structure and is used by unconstituted methods to empty the constitutional text and cause the consequent breakdown of the democratic order in Brazil. We start from the methodological point of view of bibliographical and documentary research, with consultations to legislative sources, news and reports about the current context, supported by a materialistic and dialectical perspective. We had as important theoretical references analyzes on the sexual division of labor and reproductive rights such as Heleieth Saffioti (2004, 2013), Sylvia Federici (2017), Nancy Fraser (2008). Regarding the Law and Literature category, we have the positions of Schwartz and Macedo (2006), Dworkin (2001), Trindade and Bernsts (2017).
