LOPEZ, Denisse Brust  e  LOPES, Carlos Eduardo. The concept of "lugar de fala": from the possibilities of delimitation to the risks of conceptual emptying. Rev. psicol. polít. [online]. 2022, vol.22, n.55, pp. 668-687. ISSN 2175-1390.

This study aimed to map the uses of the concept "lugar de fala" (place of speech) in academic articles, in order to evaluate eventual delimitations proposed in this literature. For that, an integrative review was carried out in Portal de Periódicos da CAPES and in Scielo databases, using the keyword "lugar de fala" in Portuguese. 66% of 142 recovered articles used the expression without bibliographical references or explicit definitions, thus maintaining the risks of conceptual emptying. Five of the remaining 34 % of the articles presented a negative use, showing more or less explicit criticism of the concept. Articles that made positive use of the concept were grouped into more or less specific fields of investigation, with emphasis on black feminism, feminism and postcolonial studies. In these fields, the concept of "local de fala" has a frankly political use, critically approaching the power relations that permeate discursive productions and that silence marginalized groups.
