Description
Summary:In this article, ecofeminism is presented as a praxis (a combination of theory and practice) in order to assist in the formulation of a theoretical-methodological proposal that understands how ecological issues have differently impacted women and other political minorities, as well as allowing for approaches that recognize ecological movements already organized and led by women. To this end, definitions of ecofeminism are presented, with an emphasis on the readings and interpretations of Latin American authors, followed by a systematic survey of two different databases—Scielo and Sucupira Plataform—with the aim of (1) identifying trends in research on ecofeminism in Brazil and; (2) understand how they have been worked on and disseminated based on the following categories: area, institution, year, region, master's dissertations, and/or doctoral theses. Finally, we will present data that reveal a rise in ecofeminist debate in Brazil and its greater incidence in the area of humanities.
