SUMMARY:

The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze, from a feminist and anti-capitalist framework, gender: the conditions surrounding its emergence and historical transformations, its central characteristics today (understanding that gender is structured/determined in conjunction with capitalism) and, finally, debate the premises of its resolution (that is, paths for its dissolution as a form of social hierarchization). Thus, hoping to conduct a feminist reflection that does not refrain from calling for the end of all forms of oppression and exploitation. This investigation begins with an analysis of theoretical perspectives on the origins of the gender, encompassing the anthropological discussion on the gendered division of humanity, as well as the conjunctural elements of its historical development (including colonialism, the capitalist mode of production and transformations in the family). Then, from feminism, a discussion is held, highlighting contributions of Marxist feminism (in particular, from the Social Reproduction Theory), to establish the central elements of gender, as well as the critical aspects articulated in the concepts of gender and patriarchy. Finally, some theoretical approaches on the end of gender oppression (and even gender itself) are analyzed, focusing on the relationship between this project, which has a feminist horizon, and the communist revolutionary project, that is, overcoming capital. This work aims, as a whole, to contribute to the understanding of gender oppression and encourage critical reflections on the relationship between gender and class in capitalists societies.
