 abstract = {"This article aims to discuss how the action research process can allow
socially and historically constructed silences to be overcome. These kinds
of silences prevent the emergence of dialogues necessary to the investigation
mode. The necessary dialogues are built through the creation of a
common participatory universe, and the construction of a consensual
space between researchers and subjects of the practice, between those who
are different and those who are the same. The article analyzes an action
research project with women embroiderers in the suburbs of a large
Brazilian city, directed at the formation of a working collective. Focusing
on this experience, the authors discuss the strategies used to break the
silence between the researcher and the group, considering the differences
between researcher and group that could reinforce silences that already
existed for participants. In a joint conclusion, the authors point out that
action research can work as a critical instrument for breaking silence,
allowing subjects to produce communicative processes that make it
possible to overcome “resigned states” in order to transform their reality." (author's abstract)},
