Abstract

This article is an examination of the ways four levels of knowledge create misunderstandings and difficulties in a Brazilian context. A Brazilian NGO, a feminist Center for Gender Studies in Campinas and the working class "subjects" of these groups combine, as a result of a problematic challenge from European funding agencies, to teach each other new ways of thinking about theories of gender, women's work, and the positive effects of research in the community.
