WOMEN IN MILITARY WORK: A BIBLIOMETRIC AND CRITICAL REVIEW

Abstract:

Military work is, historically, a predominantly male profession. The growing insertion of women in military institutions has faced important obstacles. This bibliometric review aimed to map and critically analyze the indexed literature on gender in the military context, specifically intending to identify characteristics, trends and gaps in scientific production on the topic in the last 10 years. In addition to the absence of Brazilian or Portuguese-language studies, a predominance of quantitative methods and male participants was identified. The most discussed topic was military sexual trauma. The need for more research with military women in the Brazilian context is highlighted.
