Participatory and deliberative democracy from local to global: The example of women's conferences as new spaces for mobilization and propose public policies on gender in Brazil

The core of the feminist debate has always been located in a supposed search for equal rights. However, the claims should be referred to the different rights of womanhood, which collides with sexual and reproductive issues, which itself expresses an inherent difference in relation to their arch-rivals of the opposite sex. Woman is not yet exceeded its historical trajectory of social inferiority, economic and political crisis continues to demand of the welfare state to ensure them a new perspective of social action based on guarantees of rights simultaneously egalitarian and differentiated. What is presented as new, at least the last decade, is how the claim is being organized. No longer seems to be a full antagonism between the state and organized movements, but a search for bilateral dialogue mechanisms that are taking the claims that can operationalize them. The Conference of Policies for Women, which includes the local to the national reach, we present in this context as one of the main mechanisms for promoting dialogue society - government. Because it is a space in which the composition is required or semi-equal parity between civil society and representatives of government agencies, it is new locus for broad and open discussion between the plaintiffs and defendants. The logic that governs this type of thinking more democratic policies in Brazil is trying to converge the needs of minorities with a reasonableness of the proposals, which must take into account the capacity of the legislative and executive power to implement them. It's now time, therefore, understand and discuss the proposition of new structures of gender policies in developing countries, taking, for example, new spaces for women's mobilization in Brazil, seeking to analyze their effectiveness and their actual ability to defend the enforcement of such rights, what’s the proposal of this proposed work.
