MACHADO, Camila Borges  y  PAIVA, Fernando Santana de. Women in the income transfer policy: a systematic literature review. Rev. psicol. polít. [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.48, pp. 295-310. ISSN 2175-1390.

Women are the main interlocutors of income transfer programs, being convoked to mediate the public and private sphere. Thus, a systematic review was made on the role attributed to women in income transfer policy. To search for articles, gender and female heads of household descriptors were crossed with income transfer; feminization of poverty; public policies; poverty; combating poverty, in the databases: LILACS, IBECS, SCIELO, PepSIC, Paho, Psycinfo and Web of Science. After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 22 papers were selected, 15 of which were theoretical and 7 were empirical. Our results indicate that female ownership is presented as an important political advance, but its participation becomes contradictory due to the natural way in which the sexual division of labor occupies the income transfer programs. This leads to the debate about the feminization of poverty and social reproduction work.

Palabras clave : Income Transfer; Family Grant Program, Feminization of Poverty; Women; Gender.
