Abstract

The theme of violence is in vogue with its different facets. With the popularization of studies on microaggressions, the question arises: how is this research on microaggressions created and what are their relevance? This article seeks to analyze the evolution of research on microaggression and how its theme is expanding. For this, narrative-type bibliographic research was carried out, using scientific digital libraries as sources of information such as SciELO, Google Scholar and others for articles, books and other publications on the subject. As a result, research on microaggressions is still being structured, most recently around 2010, requiring greater debate regarding the structure and limitations of the topic. Although initially used to understand symbolic violence related to ethnicity, microaggressions can also be analyzed in other themes, such as gender and sexuality, in an equally relevant way.
