A VIVÊNCIA DAS RELAÇÕES DE GÊNERO NO CONSELHO NACIONAL DE LEIGOS E LEIGAS - CNL

Abstract

This dissertation is the result of research, in which the profile of the gender relationships within the Conselho Nacional de Leigos e Leigas Católicos do Brasil was examined. To produce this profile we resorted to the theory of philosophy, linguistics, anthropology, history of sociology, psychology and psychoanalyses which forms the interdisciplinary methodological background of this dissertation. We argue that men and women, daily and historically are the product of singular and plural relationships. Some live in permanent relationships that imply both the search for differences as well as similarities, in their complex socio-cultural interaction. As all human relationship occur within history, we contextualised the group and synthesized their history. In the synthesis, it is sustained that the foundation of the group occurred during the military dictatorship and the their history has been marked by intense creativity in living their daily human relationships. The profile of gender is painted by means of careful interpretation of twelve variables. An analyses of these variables was demanded due to complex gender relationship experienced. With this the leadership of the CNL was able to live positively new gender relationships, seeking community, communion and autonomy. Based on this profile future actions amongst the leadership of the group is proposed and analysed.
