Abstract
The present text is a brief synthesis of the doctoral research, still in progress. The general objective of the research is to analyze the trajectories of female teaching union leaders who occupy or have occupied positions of female presidents in the basic education teaching unions, highlighting the relations of gender and power and the construction of identities. Consistent with the object of this study, the historical-dialectical materialist method was chosen with the choice of a qualitative approach of the case study type by consulting different sources of information: review of the relevant literature; semi-structured interviews with the leaders of the teaching unions. To analyze the data collected, we opted for content analysis. The preliminary results of the research inform that, in Brazil, women are still minorities in the presidential seats in the teaching unions.
