| description | This article deals with the emergence and development of feminist economics as an approach that opposes the predominant economy, identifying the theoretical and epistemological limitations of this current to respond to the main challenges of society. By challenging the models advocated by the neoclassics, these economists propose a new approach that integrates the dynamics of the economy and the work of reproduction as parts of a single system. In this approach, we highlight the one that places the sustainability of human life at the center. Based on specialized bibliography, the article goes through a vast literature produced in the last years in the field of feminist economics. This approach has gained relevance in Brazil only in the last two decades and at the initiative of the organized feminist movement which, in elaborating a critique of neoliberal theses and pointing out the insufficiencies of the traditional economy to indicate solutions to the dilemmas of a society split by secular inequalities, sought in this literature new theoretical and methodological contributions to rethink a new economy. In this sense, the feminist economy, focusing on the sustainability of human life, constitutes a valuable tool of analysis that allows a global critique of the capitalist system and the market economy and, therefore, was more quickly incorporated by the feminist movements that questioned the economic liberalism and globalization |

Al desafiar los modelos propugnados por los neoclásicos, estos economistas proponen un nuevo enfoque que integra la dinámica de la economía y el trabajo de reproducción como parte de un solo sistema. En este enfoque, se destaca el que coloca la sostenibilidad de la vida humana en el centro. Basado en bibliografía especializada, el artículo cubre una vasta literatura producida en los últimos años en el campo de la economía feminista. Este enfoque ha cobrado relevancia en Brasil solo en las últimas dos décadas y, por iniciativa del movimiento feminista organizado, que al elaborar una crítica de las tesis neoliberales y señalar las deficiencias de la economía tradicional para indicar soluciones a los dilemas de una sociedad dividida por desigualdades seculares, se busca en esta literatura. Nuevas aportaciones teóricas y metodológicas para repensar una nueva economía. En este sentido, la economía feminista, con un enfoque en la sostenibilidad de la vida humana, es una valiosa herramienta analítica que permite una crítica global del sistema capitalista y la economía de mercado y, por lo tanto, fue incorporada más rápidamente por los movimientos feministas que cuestionan Liberalismo económico y globalización.
