SUMMARY:

This master's thesis seeks to visualize the trajectories and understand the barriers experienced by black women candidates in the Brazilian electoral process, and what are the bases for a low rate of electoral success, at different levels of the executive and legislative branches. With locus in Bahia and having Salvador with epicenter, I ethnographed the general elections of 2014 and local elections of 2016, where 10 candidates were interviewed, who from the interdisciplinarity of gender, decolonial and anthropological studies, will have their personal and political trajectories presented. I demonstrate with this research how racism and sexism prevents the electoral success of these candidates, to the point that I highlight how discriminatory systems arising from the coloniality of power are reflected in an intersectional way in Brazilian androcentric politics, focusing on the imposition on women, a place of subalternity, considering them less able to exercise political leadership. From the perspective of the hegemonic values of our society, these candidates face obstacles of all orders, imposed by an unfair political system for women and blacks.
