The article discusses the results of research conducted by the SocioEnvironmental Studies Coastal Group of the Federal University of Pará, Brazil – UFPA in various communities of traditional populations in the region of the Marine Extractive Reserve Caeté Taperaçu-Bragança-PA. It highlights how the sexual division of labor and access to paid work, in particular the treatment of crabs, works to update the socio-historical persistence of gender inequalities. Interesting enough, the reflection of this stability is based on the changes that have operated on the relations between men and women: the construction of strategic flexibilities in the sense of rebuilding of practices and values that, simultaneously, maintain the gender system. The inflexibility of the hierarchical and socially asymmetrical representations are anchored in the reproductive capacity of women.

Pescadoras: subordinação de gênero e empoderamento

Since the last decade, studies on the fishing sector from a gender perspective have been growing, perceiving the ways gender constructions influence on how women and men work and face the risks linked to the recent changes that have been affecting the fishing activity. However, the related policies remain gender blind. This article discusses two main arguments. First, the silence about the women roles and places in fishing correlates to the vulnerability of many coastal communities in northern and southern countries. Second, fisherwomen movements have contributed to disrupt the status quo and to provide them access to empowerment policies, notably in relation to spaces and social rights. At the same time, their social movements aim to foster the local communities' capacities to manage their common resources, to adapt to social and environmental complexities and to promote gender equity. Empowerment process is complex and contradictory.
