Neste artigo, são analisadas as perspectivas feministas na criminologia, em particular, os discursos
sobre criminalidade feminina e construção do género. Parte-se de uma visão ampla sobre feminismos
e construção de conhecimento e apresenta-se uma revisão histórica da emergência e da consolidação
das perspectivas feministas na criminologia. Discute-se em particular o argumento feminista de que
a construção social do género pauta os percursos de vida das mulheres que transgridem, e se reflecte
na resposta formal e informal a essas transgressões. São analisadas as principais críticas tecidas pelas
autoras feministas ao que designam de ‘discursos tradicionais’ sobre mulher e crime e as propostas que
apresentam de reconstrução desses discursos.
