Abstract

The current article refers to the woman’s non-place on public space
and the lack of neutrality of law over the personality’s rights, through the Brazilian
civil law (capacity and civil name of woman), adopting the Liberal’s Feminism
perspective from Carole Pateman. Issues such as the domination of women in
society and the social contract will be addressed. It is not just a matter of investigating
how the laws act in the social reality, but how the laws acts on a social
reality but how they accept the clashes that took place in the society, their transformations,
their desires and their accomplishments.
