Resumen
LYRA, Júlia de Freitas Correia. Public women, anonymous narratives: Spacializing the fear and (im)permanence of women in the urban context in Maceió/AL - Brazil. Forum Sociológico [online]. 2020, n.36, pp.9-23. Epub 02-Ago-2021. ISSN 0872-8380. https://doi.org/10.4000/sociologico.8991.
Historically structured for (and by) men, the city - understood as an active agent in the (re)production of social relations - is ordered by the man-public x woman-private dichotomy. The article presents a reading of the social position of women in the city and, based on the assumption that gender disparities produce distinct urban experiences for men and women, seeks to map which (and how) spaces of fear are not fully experienced by the female public. For such purpose, the study was based on the collection of self-narratives from Jatiúca’s neighborhood users (Maceió/AL - Brazil) through the application of anonymous listening mechanisms to collect data, producing a comparative sketch of the described experiences. The results demonstrate not only the specificities of women’s experience, but also the multiplicity of experiences of these distinct subjects - illustrating the urgency of rethinking public spaces to ensure women’s autonomy in urban structures.
