Les ouvrières, des années 1968 au très contemporain : pratiques et représentations / Female workers, from 1968 to the near present : practices and representationsGallot, Fanny 10 December 2012 (has links)
Cette thèse porte sur les ouvrières en France des années 1968 au très contemporain. Elle s’appuie principalement sur deux entreprises, Chantelle et Moulinex, et leurs usines de Saint-Herblain (Loire Atlantique) et Alençon (Basse Normandie), respectivement. Elle s’intéresse à la formation d’une génération d’ouvrières, la génération 1968. Celles-ci, embauchées au début des années 1970, traversent ensemble la séquence historique de l’« insubordination ouvrière », puis vieillissent ensemble avant de se trouver licenciées dans les années 1990 ou 2000. La formation de cette génération s’inscrit dans un contexte de bouleversement de l’organisation de la production et de diffusion des féminismes à l’usine, qui affectent la division sexuée du travail – salarié et domestique. En réponse, les gouvernements successifs et le patronat développent les discours paradoxaux de la conciliation entre vie familiale et vie professionnelle d’une part et de l’égalité professionnelle de l’autre. L’étude des pratiques des ouvrières à l’usine vise à montrer si, et comment, les ouvrières parviennent à prendre la parole dans les sphères publique et privée, et dans quelle mesure, pour ce faire, elles déploient une agency particulière qui rend possible des reconfigurations dans les normes de classe et de genre. Tandis que les grèves, les pratiques quotidiennes communes et l’émergence de syndicalistes à l’usine favorisent la formation des figures des filles de Chantelle et des ouvrières de Moulinex, les fermetures d’usine interrompent brutalement cette dynamique et atomisent ces collectifs. Dès lors, chaque licenciée n’est plus qu’une ancienne de, qui cherche à se reconvertir, explorant alors différentes pistes y compris culturelles, de façon à juguler la souffrance du licenciement. / This dissertation examines female workers in France from 1968 to the near present. It concentrates primarily on two companies, Chantelle and Moulinex, and their factories Saint-Herblain (Loire Atlantique) and Alençon (Basse Normandie), respectively. The dissertation concerns the formation of a generation of female workers, “the generation of 1968.” These workers, hired at the beginning of the 1970s, together traversed the historic sequence of “worker insubordination,” then aged together before finding themselves fired in the 1990s or 2000s. The development of this generation is inscribed in the context of the changes of the organization of production and of the diffusion of feminisms at the factory, which affected the sexed division of labor - salaried and domestic. In response, the successive governments and the employers developed paradoxical discourses of conciliation between family and professional life on the one hand, and professional equality on the other. The study of worker practices in the factory aims to reveal if, and how, the workers managed to speak out in the public and private spheres, and in what measure. In order to do so, they deployed a particular agency that made possible reconfigurations of norms of class and gender. Whereas the strikes, the common everyday practices, and the emergence of unions at the factory fostered the formation of the figures of girls of Chantelle and the female workers of Moulinex, the closings of the factories brutally interrupted this dynamic and atomized these collective identities. Therefore, each fired worker became no more than an old of, who searched to adapt, exploring different paths (including cultural) as ways to curb the pain of dismissal.

ABOUT "GENDER IDEOLOGY" AND OTHER MYTHS : A decolonial critique of Antigender Discourse in contemporary ArgentinaAntonellini, Sofía January 2019 (has links)
The antigender discourse emerged in Argentina after the rejection of the bill to decriminalize and legalize abortion in 2018. Due to the lack of material available to conduct a thorough research, they emerged as a group academically unexplored. This thesis aims to fill this gap while studying the discursive strategies and organizational structure of the groups against “gender ideology”. Drawing from contributions of decolonial feminisms and intersectional analyses, this study depicts the intricate context where such groups are situated, recognizing the effects of coloniality permeating their discourse. While contrasting the information collected, through online research and semi-structured interviews, this study aims to dismantle the politics of identity beyond the façade of the antigender cause.

Sensing the State, Strategizing Survival: Foster Care and the Ordering of SpacetimebodymindsJanuary 2020 (has links)
abstract: Those who are in or have aged out of foster care, most of whom are queer, Black, brown, and low-income, are represented by social workers, educational advocates, behavioral health specialists, and the mainstream media as “at-risk” for criminal behavior, teen pregnancy, homelessness, and lower levels of educational attainment. Current and former residents of foster care and their experiences must be understood beyond these deficit models in order to restore humanity to and bring about positive change for this population. This project traced the strategies for survival of those in and aged out of foster care in Arizona through artmaking and critical qualitative methods.
Using borderlands theory and medicinal histories, I demonstrated how system involved youth paint a picture of foster care as a dehumanizing borderland creating una cultura mestiza – a hybrid culture that youth learned to navigate as both healers and healing. Additionally, I argued the foster care system is inherently disabling by way of the processual (re)narrativization the system dictates in order to make those in the system legible to the State through the labeling of mental and physical disabilities. Lastly, I explored insights garnered about foster care through ensemble-based devised theatre. I found it is important to have systemic representations of foster care in tandem with embodied experiences of said system. Collage-making served as an accessible mechanism for relationship building, material generation, and material knowledge. I discovered meaningful ways of representing absent presences of system involved people through feeding forward their artistic creations into the devising process. Taken together, I found foster care system involved people survive through art and creativity, connection to people and places, and keen resourcefulness cultivated in the system. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation Women and Gender Studies 2020

Colonial Roots Exposed: Tracking the Paradigmatic and Discursive Shifts of the Canadian Institutional Mother-Child ProgramGrégoire, Alyssa 31 January 2022 (has links)
Despite the increasing numbers of criminalized women in Canada, the use of the Institutional Mother-Child Program (MCP) remains low (Brennan, 2014). It is well known in fields of Criminology, Criminal Justice, and Indigenous Studies, that Indigenous Peoples are overrepresented in Canadian prisons; they represent about five percent of the overall Canadian population, however Indigenous women make up forty percent of all incarcerated women (Miller, 2017). Incarcerated Indigenous women are often mothers of young children, come from poor backgrounds, have little education, and suffered abuse at some point during their lives (Monchalin, 2016). In this thesis, using Indigenous Feminisms (IF) (Suzack, 2010, 2015) and Penal Moderation (Loader, 2010; Snacken, 2015), I address the following research questions: How has the MCP policy evolved over time? How have the policy changes represented a (de)colonial approach to criminal justice policy? To answer these questions, I conducted a feminist critical discourse analysis (FCDA) of all the final versions of the Correctional Service of Canada’s MCP policy (CD 768).

Cap a organitzacions habitables. Anàlisi de processos de canvi organitzacional feminista en organitzacions d'Economia SolidàriaMaicas Pérez, Marta 10 July 2023 (has links)
[ES] Las organizaciones no son espacios neutrales al género y, por tanto, están reproduciendo múltiples desigualdades y procesos generizantes. Así, el género es entendido dentro de un sistema complejo de opresiones entrecruzadas que da forma a la norma y hegemonía socioeconómica, y que está presente, también, en las organizaciones de Economía Solidaria. Esta investigación se fundamenta en la Economía Feminista, las Teorías Feministas de la Organización y las teorías de Género en el Desarrollo para analizar dos procesos de cambio organizacional feminista en la Red de Economía Alternativa y Solidaria (REAS) del País Valencià y de Euskadi. A través del estudio de casos interpretativos con una metodología de investigación-acción feminista, se analizan los cambios que los procesos de transformación organizacional feminista generan en las entidades, así como los factores que impulsan o limitan esta transformación. Esta tesis contribuye al impulso de procesos de cambio organizacional feminista y a la construcción de conocimiento y propuestas de economía feminista. Además, aporta claves para la construcción de organizaciones habitables. / [CA] Les organitzacions no són espais neutrals al gènere i, per tant, estan reproduint múltiples desigualtats i processos generitzants. El gènere s'entén dins d'un sistema complex d'opressions entrecreuades que dona forma a la norma i hegemonia socioeconòmica, i que està present, també, en les organitzacions d'Economia Solidària. Aquesta investigació es fonamenta en l'Economia Feminista, les Teories Feministes de l'Organització i les teories de Gènere en el Desenvolupament per tal d'analitzar dos processos de canvi organitzacional feminista en la Xarxa d'Economia Alternativa i
Solidària del País Valencià i d'Euskadi. A través de l'estudi de casos interpretatius amb una metodologia d'investigació-acció feminista, s'analitzen els canvis que els processos de transformació organitzacional feminista generen en les entitats, així com els factors que impulsen o limiten aquesta transformació. Aquesta tesi contribueix a l'impuls de processos de canvi organitzacional feminista i a la construcció de coneixement i propostes d'economia feminista. A més, aporta claus per a la construcció d'organitzacions habitables. / [EN] Organizations are not gender-neutral spaces and, therefore, are reproducing multiple inequalities and generating processes. In this research, gender is understood within a complex system of intersecting oppressions that shapes the norm and socioeconomic hegemony, and so, it also interacts within the Solidarity Economy organizations. This research is based on Feminist Economics, Feminist Theories of Organization and Gender in Development theories to analyze two processes of feminist organizational change in the Alternative and Solidarity Economy Network (REAS) in Spain, in Valencian region and Euskadi. Through the study of interpretative cases with a feminist action research methodology, we analyze the changes that the processes of feminist organizational transformation generate in the organizations, as well as the factors that boost or limit this change. This thesis contributes to the promotion of processes of feminist organizational change and the construction of knowledge and proposals of feminist economics. In addition, it provides keys for the construction of livable organizations. / Maicas Pérez, M. (2023). Cap a organitzacions habitables.

Previous issue date: 2015-03-27 / This paper analyzes the effectiveness of protective measures and evaluates
the knowledge we have of the effective regulations. The data analyzed were violence
and crime rates presented in the state of Goiás, from 2011 to 2013, after the
implementation of the Maria da Penha Law, in Goiânia, Goiás. For this, a brief
historical survey was done in order to understand the events leading up to the
enactment of the Maria da Penha Law and its protective measures that support
women in situations of violence. Later, through the qualitative method and semistructured
interview technique, professionals were interviewed from Delegacia
Especializada no Atendimento à Mulher (DEAM), Centro de Referência
Especializado de Assistência Social (CREAS), Secretaria de Políticas para Mulheres
e Promoção da Igualdade Racial (SEMIRA) and Centro de Valorização da Mulher
(CEVAM) - which hosts and protects women in situations of violence - also women
who had protective measures issued in the period defined by this paper. The results
indicate how protection programs work in Goiânia and the complexity of relationships
within their social relations. From the historical analysis and the relationship with the
central categories that comprise this phenomenon of violence for instance its
genesis, the women and feminist s movement, the sexual difference and the social
inequality between men and women were considered by the impact from the Law n.
11,340-06 (Maria da Penha Law), which has the intention to eradicate violence, and
the many challenges in the process of helping women who had suffered violence to
cope with it. As well, professionals and care towards the women in situations of
violence need to have an appropriate instruction and training. So for the responsible
agencies in this matter it is required to establish professional training for the
employees and for the customer service teams, based on the knowledge,
interpretation, analysis and investigation of the Maria da Penha Law, in Goiânia, in
order to establish its effectiveness. / Esta pesquisa objetivou analisar a efetividade das medidas protetivas e
avaliar o conhecimento que se tem da norma vigente, a partir dos índices de
violência e criminalidade apresentados no estado de Goiás, no período de 2011 a
2013, após a implementação da Lei Maria da Penha, no município de Goiânia-GO.
Para isso, foi feito um breve levantamento histórico a fim de compreender os
acontecimentos que antecedem a promulgação da Lei Maria da Penha e suas
medidas protetivas que amparam a mulher em situação de violência.
Posteriormente, por meio do método qualitativo e da técnica de entrevista
semiestruturada, foram entrevistados profissionais da Delegacia Especializada no
Atendimento à Mulher (DEAM), do Centro de Referência Especializado de
Assistência Social (CREAS), da Secretaria de Políticas para Mulheres e Promoção
da Igualdade Racial (SEMIRA) e do Centro de Valorização da Mulher (CEVAM) -
que atuam à frente com mulheres em situação de violência e mulheres que
possuíam medidas protetivas no período definido. Os resultados obtidos apontam
para o modo como funcionam os programas de proteção no município de Goiânia e
para a complexidade das relações estabelecidas na realidade social. A partir da
análise histórica e da relação com as categorias centrais que abarcam esse
fenômeno de violência, bem como sua gênese, o movimento de mulheres e
feministas, e a diferença sexual, traduzida socialmente na desigualdade entre
homens e mulheres, verifica-se os efeitos da Lei nº 11.340-06 (Lei Maria da Penha),
que tem como intuito erradicar a violência, e os inúmeros desafios no
estabelecimento de uma Rede de Enfrentamento, que precisa orientar o modo como
deve ser o exercício dos profissionais e os atendimentos às mulheres em situação
de violência. Cabe aos órgãos responsáveis requerer a capacitação dos
profissionais e das equipes de atendimento, a partir do conhecimento, interpretação,
análise e averiguação da Lei, no município de Goiânia, a fim de estabelecer sua
eficácia.

Feminismo islâmico: mediações discursivas e limites práticos / Islamic feminism: discursive mediations and practical limitsLima, Cila 10 May 2017 (has links)
A pesquisa proposta aqui tem como objeto de estudo o feminismo islâmico, movimento político-religioso de luta contra a opressão e a dominação sobre a população de mulheres, presente em países muçulmanos e em diásporas muçulmanas. Concebido aqui lato sensu como uma atuação feminista associada à reinterpretação das fontes religiosas do Islã, baseado nos conceitos islâmicos de ijtihad (interpretação racional das fontes religiosas) e de tafsir (comentários sobre o Alcorão), para repensar a posição da mulher na sociedade muçulmana. A hipótese que conduz a presente investigação é a de que o feminismo islâmico pode ser pensado a partir de três eixos constitutivos, interligados entre si: 1) a separação em duas vertentes, de um lado, um ativismo religioso, auto-definido como jihad de gênero, cujas reivindicações parecem sobrepor o Islã aos direitos das mulheres, e, de outro, um ativismo político, definido como defensor dos direitos humanos internacionais, cujas reivindicações são no sentido de aplicar ao Islã os direitos das mulheres; 2) a ideia de continuidade, no sentido de eliminar qualquer visão maniqueísta sobre as duas tendências, estabelecendo aqui um contínuo entre elas em que suas narrativas e atuações circulam de um extremo ao outro, de um lado dos extremos, aproximam-se de uma narrativa islamista e de, outro lado dos extremos, aproximamse de parâmetros discursivos do feminismo secular; e, 3) as forças em disputa, atualmente há três principais forças em disputa no âmbito dos movimentos sociais de mulheres em países muçulmanos e diásporas, considerando a realidade fora dos conflitos armados: os movimentos feministas seculares, o movimento islamista de mulheres (esses dois tipos de movimentos com origens nos anos 20, no Egito) e o feminismo islâmico (de origem, nos anos 80, desterritorializada e transnacional). Este estudo parte de dois pressupostos: primeiro, o de que os movimentos feministas em países muçulmanos não estão isolados do contexto internacional, os seus desenvolvimentos acompanham as tensões dos movimentos feministas internacionais, sendo expressões da internacionalização dos movimentos feministas seculares e, depois, de hibridações culturais e movimentos identitários pós-coloniais; e, segundo, o de que o feminismo islâmico, com as suas características específicas político-religiosas, tencionado entre o reformismo e o conservadorismo, é em sua essência um movimento relativista religioso, ao se dirigir exclusivamente às mulheres muçulmanas. Assim, o objetivo principal desta pesquisa é o de compreender quais as contribuições desse feminismo islâmico para a transformação da vida da mulher muçulmana, considerando duas questões centrais: a) como se pode compreender a relação do feminismo islâmico com os movimentos islamistas? e b) em que medida o caráter religioso do feminismo islâmico pode ser o limitador (ou extensor) de seu caráter feminista? Para tal, será feita uma abordagem dos seguintes recortes temáticos, que inicialmente parecem abarcar grande parte dos aspectos mais evidentes do objeto de estudo, na perspectiva proposta aqui: 1) o feminismo secular de origem ocidental e seus desdobramentos no mundo muçulmano, entre a secularização e a reislamização; 2) as afinidades passadas e presentes do feminismo islâmico com a ideologia, o movimento e o modelo islamista; e 3) o grau de persuasão em que o feminismo islâmico pode estar intervindo na consciência e na prática social, considerando suas contradições. / The subject of study of this paper, Islamic feminism, is a political-religious movement struggling against the oppression and domination of the population of women in Muslim countries and in Muslim diasporas. It is understood here, in the wider sense, as a feminist movement associated with the reinterpretation of the religious sources of Islam, based on the Islamic concepts of ijtihad (rational interpretation of religious sources) and tafsir (interpretations of the Koran), to rethink the position of women in Muslim society. The hypothesis underpinning the present study is that Islamic feminism can be thought of as having three interconnected constituent axes: 1) a separation in two distinct tendencies; on the one hand, religious activism, self-defined as a \"gender jihad\", whose grievances seem to superimpose Islam on women\'s rights, and, on the other hand, political activism, defined as defending international human rights, whose demands seek to apply Islam to women\'s rights; 2) the idea of continuity, in the sense of eliminating any Manichean view of the two aforementioned tendencies, establishing a continuum between the two in which their narratives and actions move from one extreme to the other; at one extreme, approaching an Islamist narrative and, at the other extreme, the discursive parameters of secular feminism; and 3) the forces in disputes; of which we can discern three current main forces in dispute within the social movements of women in Muslim countries and diasporas, taking into consideration the reality outside of the armed conflicts: Secular Feminist movements, the Islamist women\'s movement (these two movements have their origins in Egypt in the 1920s) and Islamic feminism (originating in the 1980s and characterized as de-territorialized and transnational). This study is based on two assumptions: first, that feminist movements in Muslim countries are not isolated from the international context, their developments accompany the struggles of the international feminist movements, being expressions of the internationalization of secular feminist movements and, later, of cultural hybridizations and post-colonial identity movements; and, second, that Islamic feminism, with its specific religious-political characteristics, exists in a state of tension between reformism and conservatism, and is essentially a relativistic religious movement, in that it is addressed exclusively to Muslim women. Thus, the main objective of this paper is to understand the role of Islamic feminism in the transformation of the lives of Muslim women, taking into consideration two central questions: a) how can we understand the relation between Islamic feminism and Islamist movements? and b) to what extent can the religious elements of Islamic feminism be the constraint (or expansion) of its feminist characteristics? To this end, we will address the following themes, which initially seem to cover a large part of the most obvious aspects of the object of study, within the perspective proposed here: 1) secular feminism of \"Western origin\" and its developments in the Muslim world, between secularization and re-Islamization; 2) the past and present affinities of Islamic feminism with Islamist ideology, the Islamist movement and its model; and (3) the degree of influence that Islamic feminism may have on social consciousness and practices, taking into account its contradictions.
