Dissertação (Mestrado em Administração Pública) – Fundação João Pinheiro, Escola de Governo Professor Paulo Neves de Carvalho, 2023.http://repositorio.fjp.mg.gov.br/handle/123456789/3993This dissertation sought to discuss the role of women in security, based on an analysis of professional women in the field of private security in the capital of Ethiopia, Addis Ababa. The work builds a theoretical discussion about gender and seeks to understand whether it is possible to discuss gender roles in Ethiopia, making an interlocution between Western theorists and African theorists. The research demonstrates that, due to the historical and political construction of Ethiopia, it is possible to discuss gender roles and, more specifically, the role of women in this society. To discuss security, the work develops the historical construction of the police and discusses the development of the private security industry. It also discusses the interlocution between security and gender in institutions and the international agenda Women, Peace, and Security (WPS). Qualitative research was carried out through exploratory research, which sought to answer and analyse the listed questions with the use of bibliographical research, field research and interviews. Nine women, private security officers, were interviewed as well as representatives of a national feminist movement. From the methodology adopted, a common understanding was perceived regarding gender roles, which directly relates to Western theories. The results demonstrate that there are characteristics associated with the woman's socialization processes that can contribute to the discussion of security. In addition, it is observed that although Ethiopia is located in a cultural and social universe that is very different from Brazil, women are subjected to very similar oppressions in the face of a system that is also patriarchal and shares religious and family elements.open accessMulherTrabalhoEtiópiaRelação de gêneroSegurança privadaDissertaçãoFJP05-000530CIENCIAS SOCIAIS APLICADAS::ECONOMIA::ECONOMIA DOS RECURSOS HUMANOS::MERCADO DE TRABALHO POLITICA DO GOVERNO
