Resumo
In this research, we aim to contribute to the historical materialist feminist critique to confront
the foundations of Psychology based on the oppression of women and families in Brazil. To
achieve this, we anchor ourselves in the theoretical framework of historical-dialectical
materialism and marxist feminism. From some critical foundations that allowed us to reflect
on Critical Psychology and feminism, both of post-structuralist bias, we conclude that
Psychology, as a science and profession, is rooted in the bourgeois society's need to use
science to maintain its hegemony. Attempts at reformulation that consider themselves
independent from historical processes reinforce the psychological hegemony in which its
foundations were established. Therefore, we choose the historical materialist feminist critique
to understand the oppression of women and families without resorting to Critical Psychology
and feminism as particular specialties that hold the true knowledge about social beings. This
theoretical-ontological basis enables us to situate the object in the universality of capitalism
and identify that the material axis of women's oppression is the sexual division of labor, a
particularity of capitalist society that inaugurated the fragmentation between productive and
reproductive work. We understand that the bourgeoisie produces and instrumentalizes the
inequality between men and women and the social role of the family as a unit of social
reproduction to foster capitalism in peripheral and central countries. The specificities of the
Brazilian context are colonialism and enslavement, in which the enslaved Black woman serves
as the foundation for dependent capitalism through stigmatization, overexploitation, and
invisibility. Through the historical materialist feminist critique, we manage to know the roots
and material bases of the oppression of women and families and highlight the particularities of
dependent capitalism, enabling us to advance towards the radical transformation of society by
facing it in its concrete reality and not naturalizing historical processes. Thus, we can
strengthen social movements and create strategies of struggle and confrontation beyond the
abstraction of psychological hegemony.
