Política pública de combate a violência de gênero na cidade de Campina Grande e a trama da violência doméstica.

Abstract

The theme of violence against women has gained in the political and academic scene great visibility by establishing a set of articulated public policies that aim to promote, guarantee and protect women victims of domestic violence. The scientific production has been directed to the study of domestic violence practices aimed at the woman as a victim and the man as an aggressor. Given this scenario, the discussion of gender arises demonstrating the limit of thinking the masculine and feminine identity from the aspect of naturalization and biology. It is necessary to investigate if the public policy guidelines and decision making regarding domestic violence responds to the dynamics. Of violence experienced in the fabric of everyday life. Therefore, the objective of the research was to understand if public policies aimed at promoting, guaranteeing and protecting the issue of domestic violence respond to the context of changing gender identities from a new context. The theoretical dialogue was based on Scott (1998) with the concept of gender; Silva (2012) with the concept of power and domestic violence with Saffioti (1995), based on the (de) construction of gender identity as victim woman and man­aggressor, Foucault (1982). For this purpose, a documentary survey was conducted in Gil (2008) based on the surveys of the Specialized Women's Police Station in Campina Grande­PB, from January 2013 to June 2016, as well as a bibliographical review of Lakatos and Marconi (2010). Of the scientific works produced with the theme of the study of domestic violence in Campina Grande. The results of the research indicated that there are no cultural, economic and social differences between the analyzed profiles of the subjects involved in domestic violence; The violence experienced in the domestic space is the result of the action and reaction of both men and women. The view that naturalized women as victims and men as aggressors is limited, because in the fabric of daily life the actions of both men and women represent a bilateral relationship of power that at certain moments constitute a relationship of violence. Women assume positions that contradict the will of the other and from this action motivates the exercise of violence. In order to have policies that address the context of domestic violence, one must take into account the relativization of the paradigm of women as victims and of the man as aggressors, as well as establish policies that address a socio­economically and culturally vulnerable population.
