Resumen

The article seeks to analyze the potential of the “feminist rewritings” methodology in Brazilian competition law. Initially, we present an overview of the feminist rewriting methodology and of the gender debates in competition law. Subsequently, based on the literature review and analysis of CADE's past decisions, we investigate three legal issues in CADE’s recent case law in order to identify the potential of the feminist rewriting method in Brazilian competition law: (i) imposition of antitrust sanctions to individuals in non-managerial positions; (ii) impact of board diversity on anti-competitive conduct; and (iii) impact of family ties in antitrust enforcement. We conclude that the feminist rewriting methodology in competition law could illuminate hidden patterns and biases in decisions that do not immediately referto gender issues and could also demonstrate that feminist theories can be effectively applied in competition cases. We hope to initiate an agenda that incorporates a feminist perspective as a broader issue in competition law, not necessarily restricted to classic feminist themes.
