Access to justice; Information and Communication Technologies (ICT); gender; Judicial Branch; female magistrates.
This work proposes to investigate access to justice, presenting its various forms of coverage, the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), as well as the gender relations that touch the performance of Brazilian magistrates. To this end, a literary review is carried out on access to justice, the implementation of technologies in the Judiciary, as well as the contributions of gender studies, encompassing the biases of the sexual division of labor, intersectionality and black feminism. Based on empirical research on the exercise of jurisdiction in the technological context, it develops the various understandings and challenges faced by female magistrates in carrying out their functions. It studies the intersections with other research related to gender and the judiciary, to understand the impasses that still exist for a more inclusive access to justice for women. It analyzes the bibliography and qualitative and quantitative data, specifically aiming to signal the fulfillment of reforms and improvements of the institutional policies of the Judiciary, so that access, ascension and occupation of spaces of power are a reality for more women magistrates, promoting a more plural and satisfactory justice.
