Abstract(s)
Este artigo baseia-se num dos estudos de uma pesquisa sobre os processos da construção social da masculinidade em contextos de dominância numérica e simbólica masculina e nas especificidades da identidade masculina que emergem nestes contextos. A partir do exemplo das transformações tecnológicas ocorridas nos processos de produção e de organização do trabalho da indústria gráfica e da abertura de uma profissão tipicamente masculina às mulheres, são analisados os discursos de 12 homens e mulheres envolvidos nesse contexto. Os elementos de análise permitem salientar a ancoragem do ideal dos profissionais na representação da masculinidade hegemónica, a acentuação, por
parte dos homens, das particularidades das mulheres, afastando-as desse ideal, e as estratégias destas para se adaptarem e serem aceites neste universo profissional em mudança.
Abstract.: This paper is based on a research focusing the processes of social construction of masculinity in contexts of male dominance, both numerical and symbolic, and the specificities of the masculine identity that emerge within these contexts. Considering the printing industry’s case with all the technological changes occurred in production processes and work organization, but also the opening of a typically male profession to women, 12 speeches of men and women involved in this context are considered. Results highlight the anchorage of professionals’ ideal on a representation of hegemonic masculinity. On the other hand, men stress specificities of women, away from that representation, while women refer to strategies that help to deal with and be accepted in that changing professional world.
