Gênero e corpo : repensando as relações internacionais

Abstract

For a long time, international relations kept the way it deals with gender, body, and aesthetics marginalized in the face of its classic debates. This research highlights the power of perspectives that consider the body and gender as situated through their capacity for political action, the social relations that comprise them, and that occur intersubjectively through historical, geopolitical, ethnic, class dimensions Sexual. The works of the authors Silvia Federici and Judith Butler were highlighted, mainly to discuss the conceptions of gender and embodiment, demonstrating the importance of discussing concepts as central to the international field study. The aesthetic approach also guided this research as it has a substantial explanatory potential about political phenomena and points out sensitive perceptions. These innovative solutions expand the scope of the discipline itself. Therefore, this research sought to rethink International Relations and help expand its ontological and epistemological bases.
