Abstract

MUNOZ, Claudio Baradit  and  FERNANDEZ, Elaine Magalhães Costa. Modes of subjectivation of women beneficiaries of the Bolsa Família Program (PBF) in the rural context of Zona da Mata Pernambucana. Estud. psicol. (Natal) [online]. 2019, vol.24, n.1, pp. 32-41. ISSN 1413-294X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.22491/1678-4669.20190004.

This article presents the conclusions of a research that questions the repercussions of a Brazilian public policy of social inclusion in the modes of subjectivation of beneficiary women. The qualitative methodology consisted of the critical analysis of the discourse obtained from the reports of six women beneficiaries of the Bolsa Família Program (PBF), habitants of the rural context of the Zona da Mata de Pernambuco. The theoretical foundation favors the focus of governmentality and feminist critiques of the PBF. The results obtained confirm that social norms are incorporated in the subjectivities of women as "poor fighter mothers". It was concluded that the PBF exerts a reinforcing function of hegemonic subjectivation modes of neoliberal society. Despite the advantages and changes produced by the PBF, women beneficiaries face a situation of fragile social inclusion, a characteristic condition of poverty in capitalist societies.

Keywords : poverty; bolsa família program (PBF); governmentality; women; rurality.
