MONTANE, Alejandra  e  CARVALHO, Maria Eulina Pessoa de. A dialogue about gender: justice, equity and equalitty policies in higher education (Brasil and Spain). Rev. Lusófona de Educação [online]. 2012, n.21, pp.97-120. ISSN 1645-7250.

This text emerges from a personal and academic relationship between two researchers - one from a university in poor Northeastern Brazil, the other from a university in rich Northeastern Spain - around issues of gender, higher education and justice. Without intending to offer a comparative analysis, it exchanges information and views about equality of opportunity policies in Brazil and Spain, and reflects on concerns related to: a) women's and men's presence in the university, regarding access, distribution, and possibilities of academic promotion; b) the production of new knowledge fields linked to the development of gender studies within higher education; c) the distinct conceptions of justice that inform gender policies and gender studies. Such reflections might illuminate similarities and dissimilarities, and deepen the understanding of inequality.

Palavras-chave : higher education; equal opportunity; gender policies; gender studies.
