Abstract
CASTRO, Marcela. Covid-19 and the work of women-mother-researchers: deadlocks in “foreign lands”. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2021, vol.27, e36370. Epub June 22, 2021. ISSN 1981-0431. https://doi.org/10.26512/lc27202136370.
This article deals with women's work articulating it with domestic, scientific and maternal work, in the pandemic context. This relationship is analyzed in feminine texts and data that exposes the situation of unemployment in Brazil. The connection care-maternity-work is discussed in papers evaluated by the Coordenaçãode Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior, which the term “care” should be seen as a female attribute that tends to associate women with professions related to it. In a feminist agenda, it is necessary breaking this stereotype, consolidating female scientific policies and employment rights, keeping open the place to live in to denounce the workload of women.
