OLIVEIRA, Érika Cecília Soares. A "dangerous female monster": Carolina Maria de Jesus' clues to the psychosocial intervention. Estud. psicol. (Natal) [online]. 2017, vol.22, n.4, pp.378-388. ISSN 1413-294X.  https://doi.org/10.22491/1678-4669.20170039.

This article starts from the assumption that the professional actuation in psychology must clearly have an ethical-political commitment, something that is not strongly seen yet, especially from relates that demonstrate the experience of psychologists in public institutions and their permanence on traditional models of intervention. Its main objective is to put in evidence debates that consider the ways of life of different social groups, so as to produce articulations among the multiple social markers of the differences that sometimes constitute them. For that, I suggest a book by Carolina Maria de Jesus - Child of the Dark: the Diary of Carolina Maria de Jesus (Quarto de Despejo: Diário de uma Favelada) - as a possibility of constructing transdisciplinary dialogues about axes of power and differentiation, approaching her existential territory in order to comprehend the way that writer produces knowledge of her reality. It is a question of proposing an exercise that highlights the complexity of the individuals to whom we address our psychosocial interventions.

Palabras clave : social markers of differences; social inequality; psychosocial intervention; feminisms; Carolina Maria de Jesus.
