A autonomia na superação da violência doméstica: um estudo sobre as políticas públicas para as mulheres nas redes de apoio da cidade do Rio de Janeiro

Abstract

The research has as object the domestic violence against women in the territory of the city of Rio de Janeiro. It starts with the analysis of the perspective of public policies in the city of Rio de Janeiro, regarding the autonomy of women in situations of domestic violence. We consider the impacts that public policies are capable of producing on the physical, emotional and financial autonomy of women who have suffered domestic violence. We start from the literature on patriarchy, gender violence and domestic violence to confront, then, the interpretative and enforceable limits of legislation and policies on the subject. As an analytical locus, we undertook a case study in public facilities for assistance to victims of domestic violence based on the three forms of delimited autonomy, being carried out through bibliographical research and interviews. The research approach is qualitative, although supported by quantitative instruments and techniques. The results were treated through content analysis, which indicated the disarticulation of policies due to the fragility in the integration of equipment and the permanence of localized policies that do not cover the entire territory, failing to reach a significant portion of the female population of the city.
