The article analyzes the political and theoretical potential of cinematographic language to express and rebuild the relationship between sexual and gender differences. As cultural products, the three films analyzed - A Casa Assassinada (1972), Sunday, bloody Sunday (1971) and Les Amities Particulières (1964) - allude to feminist issues of the time, as well as instigating a reading of gender beyond the narratives, by historicizing the visibility of the female body, heteronormativity, and the subversiveness of forbidden loves as represented through the films' structure. The text argues, from a queer perspective, that the aesthetic nature of twist cinema, within the limits of each style and period, was precisely the boldness to run risks in its visual grammar, not making political concessions in challenging the moral canons of current society.
Este artigo apresenta resultados de pesquisa sobre o uso do gênero nos 25 planos estaduais e distrital de educação promulgados entre 2014 e 2016. Demonstramos que as disputas em torno das questões de gênero nos planos evidenciam que não existe apenas uma forma de excluir ou incluir o tema, a saber: o veto; a omissão do termo e de outros a ele relacionados; a explicitação do gênero como um direito das mulheres e da população LGBT para a garantia de acesso e de permanência à educação de qualidade e o uso parcial com referências aos direitos humanos, à garantia de alguns direitos das mulheres e à cultura da paz. Mais da metade dos planos inseriu questões relativas à agenda das mulheres, sob uma perspectiva de gênero. Quase um terço dos planos expressam clareza de que a garantia de acesso e permanência com qualidade passa pelo enfrentamento das desigualdades de gênero. O caráter fixo e binário da oposição entre significados masculinos e femininos foi problematizado ao se incluir o combate ao sexismo, ao machismo e à LGBTfobia. Entretanto, vários planos manifestam o avanço de pautas conservadoras com a exclusão do gênero, corte ou limitação da agenda LGBT e inserção de itens que submetem a abordagem destes temas na escola à concordância das famílias. Conclui-se que o avanço conservador antigênero, ao menos no momento examinado, contrapõe-se à manutenção de várias conquistas. Permanecem, portanto, as contradições nas disputas de poder pela contribuição do gênero na função social da educação. ; This article presents the results of a research on the use of gender in education plans of 25 Brazilian states and the Federal District, enacted between 2014 and 2016. We demonstrate that the disputes around the gender issues in the plans bespeak that there is not just one way of excluding or excluding the topic, namely: the veto; leaving out the word and other related terms; the specification of gender as women´s right and the right of the LGBT community in order to ensure access to and permanence in quality education, and the partial use associated with human rights, the guarantee of some women´s rights, and the culture of peace. Over half the plans included issues related to the women´s agenda in a gender perspective. Almost one third of the plans clearly express that ensuring access and permanence with quality involves confronting gender inequalities. The fixed and binary nature of the opposition between male and female meanings was problematized when fighting sexism, machismo, and LGBTphobia was embraced. However, several plans indicated the move of conservative agendas by excluding gender, by cutting or limiting the LGBT agenda, and by including items that demand that dealing with such topics be subject to family approval. Conclusion is that the conservative anti-gender advance, at least in the period under screen, is opposed to maintaining a number of political achievements. Therefore, contradictions remain in the disputes of power through the contribution of gender in the social function of education.

Nas últimas décadas assistimos a um avanço dos estudos feministas, que têm trazido importantes contributos para garantir a integração e igualdade de género nas várias áreas, revelando ser uma corrente inovadora por completar e dinamizar a análise, estudo e compreensão da questão de género em especial relativamente à paz e aos conflitos. Até há pouco tempo, os assuntos relacionados com as Mulheres e a Paz não eram temas prioritários e nem eram motivos de discussão da política internacional permitindo que durante anos fossem cometidas atrocidades contra as mulheres, sem que a Comunidade Internacional desse por isso. Atualmente, as mulheres começaram a assumir um papel mais influente nos processos de reconstrução da paz. Esta evolução tem vindo a ser acompanhada por várias iniciativas e contributos a nível internacional, mediante a elaboração de importantes documentos e promoção de fóruns de debate e sensibilização da sociedade global, como é o caso da Resolução 1325 publicada pelo Conselho de Segurança das Nações Unidas, em 2000. Todos estes processos têm vindo a revelar a importância da promoção da igualdade de género em todas as fases dos processos de (re)construção da paz e da promoção da segurança, incluindo em países como a Guiné-Bissau; ABSTRACT: "The role of women in the peacekeeping processes. The case of Guinea-Bissau" In the last few decades we have witnessed a breakthrough of feminist studies, which have brought relevant contributions to ensure integration (of women to the politics discussion) and gender equality in various areas, what revealed to be an innovative and dynamic chain to improve the analysis, study and comprehension of the gender matters particularly peace vs. conflict subjects (issues). Until this and for many years, issues related to Women and Peace were not a priority and weren't grounds for discussion of international politics which allowed that all the atrocities committed against women remain covered to the eyes and judgement of the International community. From the last few years to now on we can observe how women start to play a more influential and active role in what concern to the development of peacemaking (and peacekeeping) processes. Such evolution has been motivated by different worldwide initiatives and contributions, followed by the development of important documents, promotion of discussions and the awareness of global society forums, such as the 1325 resolution, published by the Security Council of the United Nations in 2000. All these actions (processes) revealed the importance of promoting gender equality in all phases of the (re)construction of peace and the improvement of women rights and safety, including in countries such as Guinea-Bissau.
Neste artigo, refiro-me às particularidades que as lutas antirracistas têm assumido na América Latina, região em que até recentemente se pensava que o racismo era uma questão irrelevante devido à sua composição demográfica mista em termos étnico-raciais. Nos últimos trinta anos essa percepção vem mudando devido ao reconhecimento de seu multiculturalismo e, ao mesmo tempo, dos problemas que colocam em evidência a implementação do projeto de Estado multicultural e o modelo neoliberal de desenvolvimento político e econômico. Atualmente, podemos falar de uma virada antirracista na região para designar a maior atenção que se dá ao racismo na esfera pública e entre os movimentos sociais. Apresento essas reflexões a partir de minha experiência situada, como mulher colombiana e feminista afro-latino-americana; isto é, de um lugar de enunciação e de uma posicionalidade particular frente as questões do racismo e do antirracismo. Além disso, o faço isso em diálogo com o sociólogo francês Eric Fassin para examinar em paralelo os desafios que o trabalho acadêmico antirracista enfrenta hoje em função do lugar de fala que se assume. ; In this article, I refer to the particularities that anti-racist struggles have adopted in Latin America, a region in which until recently it was thought that racism was an irrelevant issue due to its mixed demographic composition in ethnic-racial terms. In the last thirty years, this perception has been changing due to the recognition of its multiculturalism and, at the same time, of the problems that put in evidence the implementation of the multicultural state project and the neoliberal political and economic development model. At present, we can speak of an anti-racist turn in the region, to designate the greater attention that today is paid to racism in the public sphere, and in that of social movements. I present these reflections from my situated experience, as a Colombian woman and an Afro-Latin American feminist; that is to say, from a place of enunciation and a particular positionality vis-à-vis the issues of racism and anti-racism. In addition, I do it in conversation with the french sociologist Eric Fassin to examine in parallel the challenges that anti-racist academic work faces today in terms of the place of enunciation that is assumed in it. ; En este artículo me refiero a las particularidades que han adoptado las luchas antirracistas en América Latina, una región en la que hasta hace poco se pensó que el racismo era un tema irrelevante debido a su composición demográfica mezclada en términos étnico-raciales.

En la actualidad, podemos hablar de un giro antirracista en la región, para designar la mayor atención que hoy se presta al racismo en el ámbito público, y en el de los movimientos sociales. Presento estas reflexiones desde mi experiencia situada, de mujer colombiana y feminista afrolatinoamericana; es decir desde un lugar de enunciación y una posicionalidad particulares frente a los temas del racismo y el antirracismo. Además, lo hago en conversación con el sociólogo francés Eric Fassin para examinar en paralelo los desafíos que hoy enfrenta el trabajo académico antirracista en función del lugar de enunciación que se asuma en él.
