Abstract
The article aims to answer the question: what explains the absence of gender policies in official Brazilian defense documents? Therefore, it suggests that such absence is also a result of military influence in politics. That is, the challenges faced by Brazilian military women, such as limited access to certain weapons and specialties, restrictions on forms of entry, infrastructure problems and the lack of legislation to support them, are reflections of the interests of political elites and their relationship with the military leaders, who do not always have the political will to put the issue of gender on the agenda, striving to keep the organization unscathed from social changes. The article employs the process tracking technique, with a special focus on the search for empirical evidence.
