The Crisis and Precarious Employment of the Female Proletariat in Brazil Between 2008-2016

Abstract

The crisis of capitalism has as one of its causes the fall in the rate of profit and financial exuberance, and each of these causes affected the employment of the proletariat as a whole, but in this work emphasis was given to the female proletariat. Therefore, the objective of this work is to analyze the precariousness of the employment of the female proletariat in Brazil between 2008-2016 in the context of crisis. This is a bibliographic research, with a qualitative approach, in which books and articles were used as a source, in relation to the articles they were consulted in the brazilian digital library of theses and dissertations and Scielo database. The following inclusion criteria were used: articles available in full published between the years 2002-2019. It is concluded that between the years 2008-2016, the precariousness of employment affected mostly the female proletariat, and that the possible solutions to this problem must go beyond the partial solutions - in terms of public policies - that have been thought up until now, thus necessary to overcome the current political and economic system.
