Abstract

GONZALEZ-CID, Claudia. GENDER INEQUALITIES IN STEM: THE CASE OF FEMALE UNIVERSITY ACADEMICS IN CHILE. Cad. Pesqui. [online]. 2024, vol.54, e10649.  Epub Apr 01, 2024. ISSN 1980-5314.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1980531410649.

Through a conceptual framework we aim to understand the specific inequalities of female academics in the STEM field, considering the different mechanisms of women’s subalternity. We use a gender perspective to investigate the structural and power configurations affecting women, as well as an intersectional perspective given the complex and dynamic configuration of the main axes of inequality that impact the experiences of female academics. Technically, we reviewed secondary sources, especially indexed journals. Substantively, we highlighted the articulation of gender and academic regimes as a mechanism of subjection, turning universities into spaces that produce and reproduce gender inequalities.

Keywords : GENDER RELATIONS; UNIVERSITY EDUCATION; SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY.
