Abstract
Abstract In this study we investigated the perceptions of women with disabilities who experience complex dependence and need relationships of care to survive or "live more". The methodology involved exploratory qualitative research. This is an emancipatory feminist investigation, aligned with feminist disability studies. Based on the results we discuss the experience of complex dependence, the lack of a public policies for care, the reduction of social participation and, finally, the potential for interdependent relations between the interviewees and their caregivers.
期刊介绍:
Cadernos Pagu was founded in 1993 and since then has contributed to the consolidation of gender studies in Brazil. The journal was created in a period when gender studies gained certain academic legitimacy in the country, and it intended to further its visibility, diffusing and stimulating knowledge production in this field. Cadernos Pagu resulted from more than two years of intense readings, researches and debates among the members of the Center for Gender Studies Pagu, analyzing gender theories developments and stalemates. The first issue was completely written by Pagu"s research members, and their articles expressed those concerns. Throughout the second and third issues, the journal redefined its editorial policies, opening to contributions from Brazilian and foreign researchers.
