Geografia, corpo e violência contra as mulheres

This article offers a critical reading of the material and symbolic dynamics of power relations, based on Geography and the framework of intersectionality. It analyzes how geographic space is shaped by social and cultural practices that reproduce structural inequalities of gender, race, class, and sexuality. Using a conceptual bibliographic methodology, the study conceives space as a field of symbolic and institutional disputes, where urban arrangements function as devices of control, discipline, and also resistance. It highlights the subalternization and invisibilization of certain bodies, especially women’s, and the role of violence in the normalization of spatialities. The article critiques Eurocentric and objectivist paradigms of traditional geography, advocating for feminist epistemologies and situated knowledge as theoretical-methodological alternatives. It concludes that thinking Geography through the intersections of body, power, and space is a political and ethical act, essential to understanding inequalities and constructing more just, plural, and transformative geographies
