A presente obra objetiva denunciar a opressão e a exploração de mulheres como um problema advindo da desigualdade estrutural produzida por um sistema de exploração do trabalho que é essencialmente racista e sexista. Aos termos, da materialidade dialética, serão apresentadas diferentes problemáticas dos estudos de gênero contemporâneos no Brasil, com ênfase nas consequências da realidade do capitalismo Neoliberal, bem como no conservadorismo social que se instrumentaliza como legitimidade histórica de violência de gênero e finalmente nas limitações e contribuições da proteção jurídica de mulheres. Sob um olhar decolonial, a crítica se coloca no alarde da falsa neutralidade ciêntífica baseada em um suposto sujeito do conhecimento universal, mas, que na verdade é masculino, branco e detentor de privilégios econômicos. Pretende-se uma obra sensível, fruto da orientação acadêmica feminista de mulheres potentes que acreditam na utopia de um amanhã permeado por maior liberdade e igualdade.

"Reality does not comply with our narrations of it. And that is most certainly the case with the narrations produced in academia. An anthropologist in Bahia, Brazil, fears to become possessed by the spirits he had come to study; falls madly in love withan 'informant'; finds himself baffled by the sayings of a clairvoyant; and has to come to grips with the murder of one of his best friends. Unsettling events that do not belong to the orderly world of scientific research, yet leave their imprint on the way the anthropologist comes to understand the world. REflecting on his long research experience with the spirit possession cult Candomblâe, the author shows, in a probing manner, how definitions of reality always require the exclusion of certain perceptions, experiences and insights. And yet, this 'rest-of-what-is' turns out to be an inexhaustible source of amazement, seduction and renewal." --P [4] of cover.
