Abstract in Portuguese
Esta tese constitui um estudo sobre o papel da mobilização feminina em discursos sobre identidade, etnicidade e pertencimento nacional. O objeto de pesquisa são as associações femininas fujinkai constituídas no âmbito da imigração japonesa para o Brasil ao longo do século XX. A partir de uma análise informada por aportes teóricos e epistemológicos dos estudos de gênero, sociologia histórica das migrações e estudos pós-coloniais, a pesquisa sugere que o associativismo feminino nipo-brasileiro esteve articulado a questões e ansiedades em relação à mistura racial e perda cultural e contribuiu para a produção de representações positivas sobre o Japão e os japoneses no arena global. Com a derrota do país na Segunda Guerra Mundial, essas organizações ressurgem com novos propósitos, promovendo trabalhos voluntários de interesse cultural e filantrópico e contribuindo para a formulação de sentidos de identidade japonesa distanciados dos referenciais imperiais-nacionalistas e alinhados à narrativa de ascensão socioeconômica do grupo na sociedade brasileira. Longe de apresentar conclusões definitivas, este trabalho busca estabelecer um campo de possibilidades analíticas a partir da problematização dos sentidos políticos da mobilização feminina no âmbito da domesticidade e as articulações do gênero com outras relações de poder como classe, raça, etnicidade e nacionalidade.

Abstract in English
This thesis is a study about the role of women's mobilization in matters of identity, ethnicity and national belonging. It focuses on women's associations called fujinkai established by Japanese immigrants in Brazil throughout the twentieth century. This analysis is based on theoretical and epistemological contributions from gender studies, historical sociology of migration and postcolonial studies. The research data suggests that Japanese-Brazilian female associations were articulated to address issues and anxieties regarding racial mixture, cultural loss and to aid the production of positive representations about Japan and the Japanese in the global landscape. After Japan was defeated in World War II, these organizations resurfaced with a new purpose, promoting voluntary works of social, cultural and philanthropic interest, contributing to the create new Japanese identities distanced from imperial-nationalist references and aligned with a project of socioeconomic ascension for Japanese-Brazilians in Brazil. Far from presenting definitive conclusions, this work seeks to establish analytical possibilities by problematizing the political meanings of women's domestic roles and mobilization and the interplay between gender and other relations of power such as class, race, ethnicity and nationality.
