Resumo: | This study analyzed how gender relations and the Brazilian socioeconomic and cultural context are perceived by female drivers of urban mobility apps in their professional performance and work environment. Using a qualitative-descriptive and interpretative approach, interviews were conducted with 11 women working as drivers of transport apps in the metropolitan region of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. The data obtained from the semi-structured interviews were analyzed considering Scott’s gender conception (1995), the theoretical assumptions of male domination and symbolic violence by Bourdieu (2002), and the perception of women as subjects of transformation in the social and cultural field by Touraine (2007). The results showed an incipient movement of social and cultural acceptance perceived by the interviewees in their performance as drivers, mainly caused by a scenario of economic crisis and unemployment, but also as a consequence of female empowerment in a system where they do not recognize themselves as victims of an oppressive, persistent, and dominant patriarchal structure, but as transforming subjects of their own reality. |

La metodología que se adoptó para el desarrollo de esta investigación fue un enfoque cualitativo, descriptivo e interpretativo. Se entrevistó a 11 mujeres que actúan como conductoras de aplicaciones de transporte en la zona metropolitana de Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Los datos obtenidos en las entrevistas con guion semiestructurado se analizaron bajo la concepción de género de Scott (1995), de las premisas teóricas de dominación masculina y de violencia simbólica de Bourdieu (2002) y de la percepción de la mujer como sujeto de transformación del campo social y cultural de Touraine (2007). Al término del estudio, se pudo constatar un incipiente movimiento de aceptación social y cultural percibido por las entrevistadas en su actuación como conductoras, potenciado principalmente por un escenario de crisis económica y de desempleo, y también como consecuencia del empoderamiento de la mujer que, al no reconocerse como víctima de una estructura patriarcal opresora, persistente y dominante, se percibe como sujeto transformador de su propia realidad.Este estudo teve por objetivo analisar como as relações de gênero e o contexto socioeconômico e cultural brasileiro são percebidos por mulheres motoristas de aplicativos de mobilidade urbana em sua atuação profissional e no ambiente de trabalho. A metodologia adotada para o desenvolvimento desta pesquisa foi uma abordagem qualitativa-descritiva e interpretativa, tendo sido entrevistadas 11 mulheres atuantes como motoristas de aplicativos de transporte na região metropolitana de Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Os dados obtidos a partir das entrevistas com roteiro semiestruturado foram analisados considerando a concepção de gênero de Scott (1995), os pressupostos teóricos de dominação masculina e de violência simbólica de Bourdieu (2002) e a percepção da mulher como sujeito de transformação do campo social e cultural de Touraine (2007). Ao final do estudo, constatou-se um movimento incipiente de aceitação social e cultural percebido pelas entrevistadas em sua atuação como motoristas, impulsionado principalmente por um cenário de crise econômica e de desemprego, mas também como consequência do empoderamento da mulher que, não se reconhecendo vítima de uma estrutura patriarcal opressora, persistente e dominante, se percebe sujeito transformador de sua própria realidade.Escola Brasileira de Administração Pública e de Empresas da Fundação Getulio Vargas2021-12-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/8452210.1590/1679-39512020141Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 19 No. 4 (2021); 872-886Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 19 Núm. 4 (2021); 872-886Cadernos EBAPE.BR; v. 19 n. 4 (2021); 872-8861679-3951reponame:Cadernos EBAPE.BRinstname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporenghttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/84522/80059https://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/84522/80060Colodetti, Ana Paula de Oliveira AmaralMelo, Marlene Catarina de Oliveira Lopesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-12-21T00:19:08Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/84522Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebapehttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/oaicadernosebape@fgv.br||cadernosebape@fgv.br1679-39511679-3951opendoar:2024-05-13T10:00:23.984574Cadernos EBAPE.BR - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true |
