Gender, Advertising and Commoditization of Feminisms in Brazil
The feminist discourses have been used and reinterpreted in the mass media according to the logic of market relations. If the legitimacy of feminist discourse was once questioned, agencies and advertisers now attempt to channel the main aspects and values of the feminist discourse that may be attached to brands and products. This current research aims to develop a critical review about the theoretical and market trends that dialogue with contemporary discussions about the representation of women in the process of commoditization of feminism. We aim to analyze the effects of the transformation of feminism into merchandise in what is being called Femvertising (SKYE, 2015) and / or commodity feminism (GOLDMAN, 1992). Goldman (1992) and Skye (2015) argue that this is a way to appease the discontent of women with images of thin, young and hypersexualized bodies. The research also aims to understand how this debate may and may not promote affirmative gender policies incorporated by society. While terms as 鈥渨omen empowerment鈥�, 鈥済irl power鈥� and 鈥渇eminisms鈥� have gained social and academic prominence within movements fighting for equal rights for women and LGBTQ+ communities, as well as gender studies, so have media and brand strategies, in which consumers are invited to defend values and principles along with a brand, adding value to the brand 鈥淒NA鈥�.

The Gendered Politics of the Right to the City
The literature and advocacy around the notion of a "right to the city" have been advancing for more than five decades. The principle has been integrated into laws, such as The City Statute in Brazil, in 2001, and The New Urban Agenda signed in Quito in 2016. However, the implementation of policies that enable the right to the city faces several challenges, ranging from the lack of social participation in policymaking to inequalities in daily access to urban spaces. This talk aims to initiate a discussion of gendered power relations in Brazilian cities, and whether cultural production and policymaking can be used to discuss the right to the city from a gender perspective. Drawing on three ethnographic research projects developed over the last seven years, this discussion is an attempt to build a narrative integrating several questions that emerged along the way. It will briefly address the regulation of street performance/public spaces, the multifaceted conflicts over inhabiting the urban night, and the technopolitical agenda surrounding the smart city. Hopefully, this reflection can offer an opportunity to debate our shared urban future from an interdisciplinary, Global South perspective.
