A Trajetória de mulheres migrantes do Assentamento Itamarati I: relações de gênero e trabalho

Abstract

In this work I developed a study on the memories and representations of peasants migrating women from Itamarati 1 settlement, in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul. The contact with settled women enabled us to know their life trajectories, experiences and their daily life relationships and conflicts within a land searching context. Through sources and methodology of oral history, It is told a story, from the perspective of the women, arguing about gender and work relations during their life trajectories. The study was based on the memories of women who lived and participated in a process of migration in the struggle and conquest of land from the 1980s. Through the methodology of Oral History it was sought to listen to their stories and their perceptions about their participation in labor relations. This study may serve as an important tool for any research about the historical and social point of view about Mato Grosso do Sul’s border regions, Rural Settlements of Agrarian Reform, and peasant women’s history.
