Dois gêneros, duas histórias? A fundação da ciência política no Brasil [Marcia Rangel Candido, 2024, Rio de Janeiro, EDUERJ]

Abstract

By the late 1990s, US academia had begun to critically examine women’s status and gender inequalities within political science, marking the emergence of a specialized subfield focused on issues such as publishing, citations, education, and harassment in the discipline. However, scholarly work addressing these themes in Latin America only started to appear in the mid-2010s and remains limited, especially in book-length form. In this context, Marcia Rangel Candido’s Dois Gêneros, ¿Duas Histórias? represents a significant milestone in advancing the study of gender and political science in the region and beyond.
