Abstract

ABSTRACT: This paper aims to analyze the citizenship of transgender people in contemporary times, especially from the perspective of the baumanian concept of consumer society. For better construction of the proposed analysis, the work was divided into two sections. Ideas about citizenship and vulnerability of transgender people are developed in the first part. In the second section the concepts of consumption and consumerism in the consumer society are developed from the theories of Jean Baudrillard, Néstor García Canclini and Zygmunt Bauman. Using the bibliographic and documentary method, a research with a qualitative approach was developed. Although it is possible to materialize citizenship through consumption in the consumer society, in the final considerations, it was found that the vulnerability of transgender people prevents consumer practices that enable consumerist citizenship.
