Abstract

The purpose of this essay is to inquire about the phenomenon of the feminization. The concepts of inclusion and exclusion in relation to modes of representation contribute to understand and explain the levels of participation of women in social and labor scenarios. In the context of the expansion of formal education, it examines the discourses of vocation and professionalism related to the professionalization of areas with equal participation of women and professional areas known as non-traditional. The essay addresses the following questions: how do women assume the working and professional scenarios of education?, and what elements signify the discourse of feminization in professional areas such as education?
