SUMMARY:

Gender relations and their transformations involve subjectivities on the formation of masculine and feminine, from which power relations are established, influencing other aspects of life in society, structuring social inequalities based on gender inequalities. This context is constantly reproduced and can be seen in the invisibility attributed to women in rural areas, especially in artisanal fishing. In fishing communities, the family economy regime predominate and the fishing way of life can’t be dissociated from productive practices, which are marked by the division of cooperative work in the family unit that gives women, housework and activities on the land, and to men, the practices performed at the sea, considered the most important not only in the process of economic production, but also in the symbolic production of life. However, artisanal fishing in the municipality of Rio do Fogo / RN is practiced by women, who are called maricultoras for cultivating, collecting and benefiting marine algae. These women construct a solidarity and feminist economy according as they organize economic life based on the cooperation and solidarity between them and their families, resisting from the exercise of a work culturally practiced by men. Thus, the general objective of this work is to understand how the process of individual and collective empowerment of the fishing women in Rio do Fogo beach took place. Therefore, the methodology of this study is based on an ethnographic approach of a qualitative nature, using in-depth interviews focusing on life stories and trajectories of the maricultoras, workshops, use of audiovisual record and participant observation as instruments of data collection. As data analysis techniques, content and speech analysis will be adopted using Iramuteq software to facilitate quantification and statistical analysis of texts and Ucinet for graphic representation of community social networks, allowing the analysis of the data and the role of the actors in the local context. Although field research will be completed only in September 2019, it is already possible to infer that women's work in mariculture attests to the occupation of a new space and field, resulting on changes in social relations. In this

 

perspective, the main hypothesis of this dissertation is that the exercise of mariculture is one of the main factors responsible for collective and individual women’s empowerment, who have their work recognized by the community and occupy a significant role in the local economy, demonstrating a greater collective empowerment in relation to other fisherwomen in rural communities along the RN coast.
