Considering that imprisonment is not the only punitive measure applied and legitimized by the State, attention was directed towards the policy of electronic monitoring. When subjected to this measure, the individual is required to wear a device of surveillance, punishment, and social control attached to their ankle, which enables real-time tracking. In this way, the sentence is served outside prison walls, while the individual manages their own confinement. However, although this measure differs from conventional imprisonment, the continued confinement of the monitored population is still evident, even outside penitentiary walls, through a critical examination of how this policy operates. Specifically, the aim is to understand electronic monitoring from a gendered perspective; that is, it is assumed that people of different genders experience the restriction of freedoms in distinct ways, and therefore the focus is placed on the experiences of women living with the so-called electronic ankle monitor. The particularities of this policy as experienced by the female population are investigated in light of the gender inequalities and violences that structure Brazilian society, as well as those related to class, race, generation, sexual orientation, and education. This is a qualitative investigation, grounded in a comprehensive approach, concerning the everyday lives of these individuals and how monitoring manifests itself in the subtleties of daily life, in tasks commonly regarded as routine. In other words, attention is directed to the everyday life of this population, considering the reach of the violences produced by monitoring in spheres regarded as the most ordinary aspects of life. In addition to everyday tasks, the family and friendship relationships of the interlocutors are also examined in light of the use of the ankle monitor, as well as employment and educational possibilities, likewise considering the effects of monitoring. Methodologically, field research was conducted, including semi-structured interviews, informal conversations, examinations of social media profiles of monitored women who share their routines, and the reading of an autobiographical work by one of the interlocutors. Thus, it is understood that, although electronic monitoring produces general effects on those subjected to it — men and women, for example — it is interpreted as a policy that also generates heterogeneous phenomena depending on the social group targeted. In the case of the female population, it is understood that the dynamics of this punitive and surveillance measure intersect with inequalities already established in Brazilian society and therefore require careful and specific attention. Finally, it is hoped that this study will contribute to research on conflict and violence, particularly to discussions surrounding the policy of electronic monitoring, from a perspective that takes into account the specificities of women’sexperiences.

It examines the process of women’s participation in the formal political arena through a policy aimed at addressing inequalities: the implementation of the gender quota law in Brazil. It also analyzes the impacts of this legislation. The roles that women are expected to play in society have long been the subject of political debate. This debate is present both in classical political thought and in contemporary sociology. Women have increasingly gained space in important spheres of society, such as the economy and education. However, they still have not achieved significant numerical representation in formal politics. Their presence in the National Congress is less than 10%, even though they account for more than 50% of the Brazilian population. In the 2010 elections, the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) began requiring compliance with a minimum percentage of 30% of candidacies for one of the genders. Modern democracy has not resolved this situation, and party competition has also failed to do so. Quotas constitute a way of managing this inequality in an attempt to reduce it. The relationship between the gender quota law and the complexity of electoral politics gave rise to the phenomenon known as “dummy candidacies.” For the development of this study, research was conducted on the topic involving the relationship between gender and politics, as well as on gender relations in other social spheres. Data from several sources were also analyzed, ranging from direct interviews to quantitative information extracted from databases. The inclusion of new political actors in the electoral environment is a complex process. The attempt to manage inequalities in candidacies faces the pragmatic logic of elections, which seeks to maximize the number of votes through already tested profiles. The quota policy was effective in encouraging women’s candidacies; however, it did not result in the formation of competitive female candidates capable of effectively contesting elections.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and algorithmic systems are among these innovations, increasingly adopted by corporations and governments, with potential impacts across various spheres of society. Moreover, the boom of generative AI, marked by the launch of ChatGPT in November 2022, has significantly revitalized the public debate surrounding artificial intelligence and its social, political, and ethical implications. In this context, public authorities around the world have been adopting AI tools across different sectors, with particular prominence given to initiatives within the Judiciary. In Brazil, the Judiciary has implemented several AI-based solutions, which has sparked debates about algorithmic discrimination, transparency, and the impacts on access to justice. Given this scenario, the present study aims to: (a) systematize the main artificial intelligence tools used worldwide and in Brazil up to 2025; (b) critically analyze the content discussed at the “1st Symposium on the Judiciary and Artificial Intelligence: Practical Applications,” as a way to clarify the position of the Court of Justice of the State of Ceará (TJCE) and the professionals it invited to discuss the implementation and use of AI in the judiciary of Ceará. The research is exploratory and qualitative in nature, based on document analysis. It includes participant observation in public events and systematic consultations of institutional sources available on judicial electronic portals. Discourse analysis was employed to examine documents, official statements, and interviews, seeking to understand the meanings attributed to the adoption of AI within the judicial context of Ceará.

To this end, we employ a theoretical and critical approach, considering the transformations in the world of work from the perspective of Friedrich Hayek's work, with emphasis on his discussions about work and individual freedom. This research adopts a qualitative methodological approach, articulated with Critical Technocultural Discourse Analysis (CTDA), through fieldwork involving nine in-depth semi-structured interviews with freelancers who have worked or are currently working on the following platforms in the last five years: Profes, VintePila, Superprof, Freelaweb.com.br, and 99Freelas. When we consider “individual freedom” as a sociological problem linked to labor relations and social practices underlying the platformization of work, we can access narratives that reveal the specificities, ambivalences, and details of the emerging issues.
