Abstract

 

Based on studies in the field of Cultural Studies in Education and Deaf Studies, this article focuses on the cultural productions in deaf communities and analyzes the power relations in the construction of cultural meanings. These fields understand deaf culture as a space of contestation and constitution of identities and differences that determine the lives of individuals and populations. This article is based on the partial results of the project "Production, dissemination and consumption of Brazilian deaf culture", developed by researchers at the Graduate Program of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), in partnership with researchers of the Universidade Federal de Pelotas (UFPel) and the Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM).
