A importância do acolhimento da mulher vítima de violência sob o prisma da análise do sistema jurídico brasileiro no combate à violência doméstica

Abstract

The present work has as its object of study the theme of the importance of welcoming women victims of violence from the perspective of the analysis of the Brazilian legal system in the fight against domestic violence. It seeks to identify the reasons why violence against women is still rooted in public and private spaces of society, through a study of the historical context of patriarchy and machismo that, despite the changes of generations, legislative changes and achievements through actions and feminist movements, the number of women victims of domestic violence increases daily, with a considerable increase during the Covid-19 Pandemic in Brazil. In addition, it describes the existing types of violence against women, which are present in the Maria da Penha Law, as well as demonstrates the indicators and data of these in Brazil and Caxias do Sul. It also seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of the Maria da Penha Law and the urgent protective measures. In order to exemplify this fight, actions developed in the municipality of Caxias do Sul are presented, with emphasis on the work of Casa de Alhinho Viva Rachel and awareness projects carried out by the Grupo Mulheres do Brasil. The aim of this work is to demonstrate that domestic violence against women, which frequently occurs, can be cured, to a certain extent, by effectively welcoming the victim into shelters.
