A questão da mulher: um resgate histórico

Abstract

This paper aims to provide a detailed analysis of the idea of women, from a historical and political perspective. Mainly, in the aspect of social construction, that is, how social changes accompany and are responsible for the structure of how we see the feminine. To better understand the historical consequences, we will use the theory of historical dialectical materialism, contained in Marxist thought. Through the theme, we will use Philosophers known for the discussions about gender and class struggle, therefore, The Second Sex of Simone de Beauvoir, Caliban and the witch of Silvia Federici, The origin of the family, of private property and the State of Engels Friedrich, Women, race and class by Angela Davis. Therefore, the central theme of the project is to observe the woman as a social being, also addressing the different reality between white and black women. There is a structural problem that makes women's emancipation unfeasible, for that, it is necessary to understand what this structure is and how we can combat it. Thus, this research aims to analyze and discuss the social political processes contained in the gender issue that, at the same time, involves race and class.
