Abstract

OLIVEIRA, Isabella Bonaventura de. Thinking non-innocent relations: Pharmacy and Dentistry in São Paulo studied through a gender bias (1985-1906). Pesqui. prát. psicossociais [online]. 2016, vol.11, n.1, pp. 200-213. ISSN 1809-8908.

Through a situated perspective, this research discusses the controversies and alliances that permeated the process of institutionalization of pharmacy and dentistry in São Paulo at the First Republic. These groups wanted to establish themselves as separated disciplines of medicine; therefore, they made alliances, such as the foundation of their scientific societies: the Paulista Pharmaceutical Society (1895) and the Paulista Dental Society (1903) as well, they published specific journals. These professions showed to be more permeable to the presence of women, especially after the creation of the School of Pharmacy in 1898 in Sao Paulo. In this way, it is also intended to understand how gender issues have made part in this process of institutionalization. It discusses how the presence of these agents promoted new directions and problems in the purified field of the ascetic's conceptions and 'objective' science that pharmacists and dentists sought to raise.

Keywords : Gender; School of Pharmacy and Dentistry; History of sciences.
