Políticas públicas, interseccionalidades e diversidades

Abstract

The book brings together articles, with reflections from different analytical perspectives on the realities of public policies in Brazil. To address issues such as legal questions, public policies, affirmation of rights, social justice, social movements, corporations, health, prison system and social inequality, among others that face or cut gender, ethnic and racial relations. The look of the reader also encouraged me to analyzethe texts from the perspective of intersectionality and diversity. Articles that reveal the social, political, economic and cultural commitment of all researchers involved in the process of training and intervention. In one way or another, all the authors of this collection, with different interdisciplinary perspectives, poin out or strategic role of public policies in the establishment or in the contest of the hegemonic project of contemporary Brazilian society, reaffirming or confirming as indispensible not confrontation and overcoming of precarious lives. It investigates how to reverse centers in which inequalities prevail, surrounded by socioeconomic, ethnic-racial, cultural and ideological discrepancies, or that it prompts usto adjust the lenses for an intersectional reading to overcome obstacles, challenges posed daily in ourlives. Developing protective legislation, affirmative action and provision of directives with policies, actions, programs and projects that promote ways of overcoming inequalities, corroborates with the change of paradigms in relation to or with the achievement of two problems and conception of existing solutions. The texts presented here translate a social and political commitment to or make visible fundamental elements for the promotion of public policies aimed at popular segments that experience processes of subalternity, exclusions, inequalities, but also resist them, producing new forms of sociality, based on solidarity, sharing of knowledge and respect for diversity.
