Gênero, diversidade e relações de poder

Abstract

In the last years, several agents have emerged in the Brazilian political scene that represent ideological groups of different shades and claim space in the public sphere for the presentation and fulfillment of their demands. Specifically, on the Right of the political spectrum emerged movements identified as liberal and conservative with several objectives that sometimes complement each other and mingle. Among these movements, the Free Brazil Movement (FBM) has received prominence for its political participation and organizational spectrum, being defined as a liberal movement that defends individual and market freedoms and, at the same time, acts to preserve conservative social values. This movement was significant for changes in the Brazilian public scenario, such as Dilma Rousseff's impeachment of the Presidency of the Republic in 2016, encouraged by popular protests organized by this and other similar movements. In recent years, the FBM has promoted women's integration in their mobilizations by opening a space in their social networks for women, publishing their speeches that addressed political-ideological goals and positions related to the values propagated by the movement. These speeches proved essential in the articulation and outbreak of pro-impeachment popular movements, as well as helping to form a conservative public opinion on gender discussions and issues such as abortion, equality, patriarchy and feminism. Thus, this research aimed to analyze the discourses of women published on the Free Brazil Movement channel on YouTube and related to gender perspectives, patriarchy and political ideals defended by the movement. To achieve this goal, the research is methodologically based on the assumptions of Discourse Analysis proposed by Michel Pechêux. Regarding the procedures and research techniques used, a descriptive and qualitative research was performed according to the deductive method, adopting bibliographic research techniques. The survey proposed by this research was limited to the years 2015 to 2018, in which 21 videos with female speeches were published. This total was submitted to an initial appraisal in order to determine the possibility of its insertion among the categories of analysis gender, patriarchy and liberalconservatism, from which only 19 were selected and submitted to analysis. In the end, it was possible to conclude that the feminine discourses analyzed have a strong attachment to religion, nationalism and conservative values, placing the FBM as a movement based on the concept of “liberal in economics and conservative in customs”. It was also possible to observe that the amount of videos with female speeches published on the FBM page is significantly lower than those published by men, indicating that granting space to women within the movement is not the priority. Nevertheless, this space, albeit small, produces positive developments in terms of both women's political organization and their emancipation
