Resumo: Increasing the number of women elected to parliaments has been a historic objective of most feminist movements. The expectation is that this will not only expand the correspondence between parliament and society, but also that advances in policies for women will be noticed. To investigate the substantivity of representation, 10,753 legislative proposals presented between 2015 and 2017 in the Brazilian Chamber of Deputies were analyzed, seeking to evaluate the quality of the legislative production of the Brazilian congresswomen and the correlation to the agenda of the Articulation of Brazilian Women. As a result, it is demonstrated that, between 2015 and 2017, female representatives were three times more productive than males and that there was adherence between agendas considered consensual, but little performance in relation to more progressive agendas.

La expectativa es que ello no solo ampliará la correspondencia entre el parlamento y la sociedad, sino también que se noten los avances en las políticas para las mujeres. Para investigar la sustantividad de la representación, se analizaron 10,753 proposiciones legislativas presentadas entre 2015 y 2017 en la Cámara de Diputados, buscando evaluar la calidad de la producción legislativa de las diputadas federales brasileñas y la correlación entre el desempeño legislativo y la agenda de la Articulación de la Mujer Brasileña. Como resultado, se identificó que, en el período, las mujeres parlamentarias fueron tres veces más productivas que los hombres y que había adherencia entre temas considerados consensuales, pero poco desempeño en relación a pautas más progresistas.Aumentar o número de mulheres eleitas aos parlamentos tem sido um objetivo histórico de grande parte dos movimentos feministas. A expectativa é de que isso não apenas amplie acorrespondência entre parlamento e sociedade, mas também que sejam percebidos avanços em relação às políticas para as mulheres. Assim, para investigar a substantividade da representação, foram analisadas 10.753 proposições legislativas apresentadas entre 2015 e 2017 na Câmara dos Deputados, buscando avaliar a qualidade da produção legislativa das deputadas federais brasileiras e a correlação entre a sua atuação legislativa e a agenda da Articulação de Mulheres Brasileiras. Como resultado, identificamos que, no período, as mulheres parlamentares tiveram três vezes mais projetos de lei transformados em norma jurídica do que os homens e que houve aderência entre temas considerados consensuais, mas pouca atuação em relação a pautas mais progressistas.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2023-07-12info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/7989810.1590/1806-9584-2023v31n179898Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 31 No. 1 (2023)Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 31 Núm. 1 (2023)Revista Estudos Feministas; v. 31 n. 1 (2023)1806-95840104-026Xreponame:Revista Estudos Feministasinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporenghttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/79898/53481https://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/79898/53482Copyright (c) 2023 Revista Estudos Feministashttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessScheidweiler Ferreira, Gerson LuizOliveira, Ana CláudiaLeal Lopes de Sousa, Janara Kalline2023-07-12T21:40:51Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/79898Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/oai||ref@cfh.ufsc.br1806-95840104-026Xopendoar:2023-07-12T21:40:51Revista Estudos Feministas - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
