Resumo: This article addresses the advances and challenges to achieve a greater balance between men and women who participate in military components of United Nations peacekeeping operations. There is relative consensus about the importance of increasing female military presence in the field; however it is also important to analyze the extent to which the increase in the number of women satisfactorily contests conventional ideas about the spaces to be occupied by them in UN peacekeeping. Anchored by gender and feminists theories, this article problematizes the United Nations’ discourse of Gender Balance.

Há relativo consenso quanto à importância do aumento da presença feminina em campo; entretanto, necessário se faz analisar em que medida as justificativas para o aumento do número de mulheres contrastam com ideias convencionais sobre os espaços a serem ocupados por elas nos instrumentos de manutenção da paz. Com base em teorias feministas e de gênero, este artigo questiona o discurso apresentado pela ONU em prol da estratégia de Equilíbrio de Gênero.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2013-09-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X201300030000410.1590/S0104-026X2013000300004Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 21 No. 3 (2013); 817-837Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 21 Núm. 3 (2013); 817-837Revista Estudos Feministas; v. 21 n. 3 (2013); 817-8371806-95840104-026Xreponame:Revista Estudos Feministasinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X2013000300004/26499Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Estudos Feministasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRebelo, Tamya Rocha2018-08-14T16:18:42Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/33054Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/oai||ref@cfh.ufsc.br1806-95840104-026Xopendoar:2022-11-21T11:38:18.522383Revista Estudos Feministas - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)true
