The article deals with relations between feminism and the state In Brazil. It focuses on the debate concerning participation by the feminist movement in the state apparatus, a discussion which is polarized on the issue of autonomy versus Institutionalization. In situating the political context which gave rise to the State and National Councils for the Defense of Women, the authors analyze the work done by these councils and the nature of public policies attributed to them.
