Saberes Plurais para o Jornalismo: crítica de gênero e contribuições femininas nas Teorias do Jornalismo

Abstract

About 50 years after critical reflections on journalism in Brazil from the first postgraduate study in the field, we are faced with significant attempts to understand the contributions and approaches of journalism researchers to a Journalism Theory. In this article, we investigate how women's knowledge and research are presented in the bibliographies of journalism courses in the country. In a moment of discussion about teaching-learning as an experience of inclusion, we are interested in causing disturbs on the implications of teaching journalism from a mostly male thinking, which is constructed as a canon and as a universal experience. To this, we surveyed journalism theory discipline programs in 27 undergraduate courses, one from each federation unit. The result revealed an epistemological inequality due to gender relations in the knowledge production about journalism.
