Feminismo, Violência de gênero contra as mulheres, Opressão de gênero, Casamento infantil, Normas sociaisResumo
Neste artigo, argumentamos que o casamento infantil deve ser entendido como uma prática social opressiva direcionada a meninas e mulheres, sustentada por uma estrutura normativa complexa que reforça estruturas e dinâmicas patriarcais. Baseamos nossa análise em uma perspectiva feminista e socioecológica da teoria das normas sociais, destacando a influência das normas de gênero e do contexto social e político. Em seguida, exploramos o papel da agência e da deliberação de meninas e adolescentes em contextos marcados por injustiça e opressão de gênero, utilizando teorias não-ideais para aprofundar a compreensão das estratégias que orientam a escolha dessas jovens por essa prática.
