Abstract(s)
A praxe académica no ensino superior é um fenómeno tradicionalmente marcado por uma vertente fortemente masculinizada. Na contemporaneidade, torna-se pertinente perceber como é que as questões de género estão atualmente inseridas na organização e na praxis da vida académica. Assim, através de uma metodologia qualitativa, com base em entrevistas e focus group, realizou-se um estudo de caso numa Instituição de Ensino Superior do norte de Portugal. Os resultados da presente investigação indicam uma crescente preocupação com a inclusão e integração da diversidade de género na praxe académica. Observou-se que, embora não haja uma diferenciação explícita ou consciente entre géneros, pequenos detalhes revelam a existência de dinâmicas que podem, por vezes, perpetuar discriminações inconscientes, especialmente no que diz respeito a minorias. A problemática da desigualdade que afeta particularmente as mulheres revela sinais de progresso, embora ainda não se encontre plenamente superada. De um modo geral, têm sido alcançados avanços significativos, contudo, persiste a necessidade de prosseguir os esforços no sentido da concretização plena da igualdade de oportunidades.
Academic hazing in higher education is a phenomenon traditionally marked by a strongly masculinized aspect. In contemporary times, it is pertinent to understand how gender issues are currently inserted into the organization and praxis of academic life. Thus, using a qualitative methodology, based on interviews and focus groups, a case study was carried out in a Higher Education Institution in the north of Portugal. The results of this research indicate a growing concern with the inclusion and integration of gender diversity in academic hazing. It was observed that, although there is no explicit or conscious differentiation between genders, small details reveal the existence of dynamics that can sometimes perpetuate unconscious discrimination, especially with regard to minorities. The issue of inequality that particularly affects women shows signs of progress, although it has not yet been fully overcome. In general, significant progress has been made, but there is still a need to continue efforts to fully achieve equal opportunities.
