Interseccionalidade e o trabalho doméstico: uma análise jurídica-sociológica

Abstract

This article intends to work on the concept and structuring of intersectionality as a parameter for discussions about domestic work in Brazil, considering its wide scope and importance for Brazilian women. In addition to bringing the sociological contribution, it is intended to combine it with legal and legislative analysis, in order to understand the perpetuation of colonial and discriminatory traits that tie this working class. In addition, it will assess how their guarantees and right have been implemented and what are the implications and difficulties they have faced in contemporary times. The interest in the proposed theme stems from the questions arising from the perpetuation of colonial traits in domestic work, considering that the majority of domestic workers are women, predominantly black and marginalized. It seeks to understand through the sociological premises how Brazilian society has been created to reproduce such a pattern, and on the other hand, it analyzes what the axes of power, especially the judiciary, have done to contribute to or combat this situation.
