Resumo: | Since the last decade, studies on the fishing sector from a gender perspective have been growing, perceiving the ways gender constructions influence on how women and men work and face the risks linked to the recent changes that have been affecting the fishing activity. However, the related policies remain gender blind. This article discusses two main arguments. First, the silence about the women roles and places in fishing correlates to the vulnerability of many coastal communities in northern and southern countries. Second, fisherwomen movements have contributed to disrupt the status quo and to provide them access to empowerment policies, notably in relation to spaces and social rights. At the same time, their social movements aim to foster the local communities’ capacities to manage their common resources, to adapt to social and environmental complexities and to promote gender equity. Empowerment process is complex and contradictory. |

Contudo, políticassetoriais ainda têm dificuldade em incorporar a dimensão de gênero. Este texto evidencia doisargumentos principais. Primeiro, o silêncio sobre a questão feminina articula-se à situação devulnerabilidade, característica de grande parte das comunidades pesqueiras, em países no“norte” e no “sul”. Segundo, movimentos de mulheres pescadoras têm contribuído para questionaro status quo e inscrevê-las em políticas de empoderamento, sobretudo no que toca a espaçose direitos sociais. Ao mesmo tempo, esses movimentos buscam recuperar a capacidade quesistemas locais comunitários de gestão de recursos naturais têm demonstrado de adaptação àcomplexidade socioambiental e de respeito ao protagonismo feminino. O processo deempoderamento não é linear, mas complexo e marcado por contradições.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2012-09-10info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X201200030000710.1590/S0104-026X2012000300007Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 20 No. 3 (2012); 713-737Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 20 Núm. 3 (2012); 713-737Revista Estudos Feministas; v. 20 n. 3 (2012); 713-7371806-95840104-026Xreponame:Revista Estudos Feministasinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X2012000300007/23825Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Estudos Feministasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessManeschy, Maria CristinaSiqueira, DeisÁlvares, Maria Luzia Miranda2018-08-14T16:35:21Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/27654Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/oai||ref@cfh.ufsc.br1806-95840104-026Xopendoar:2022-11-21T11:38:13.922830Revista Estudos Feministas - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)true |
