Judiciarização do privado e violência contra a mulher

Abstract

Este trabalho apresenta alguns dos paradoxos presentes na Lei Maria da Penha, tendo como referentes teóricos as recentes análises sobre os processos de jurisdiciarização da vida privada. A mencionada Lei trata sobre relações que por muito tempo foram consideradas fora do espaço regulatório do Estado e tem por objetivo principal erradicar e punir as formas de violência doméstica contra a mulher. Os paradoxos, aos que fazemos referência, apresentam-se tanto no grau de ampliação dos processos de criminalização, quanto na aplicação concreta por parte do sistema jurídico-judicial do Estado. Neste sentido, assinalamos os problemas de uma aplicação da lei que possa vir a reproduzir a cultura jurídica conservadora presente na sociedade e, portanto, nos operadores de direitos, caso não se compreenda a questão da violência contra a mulher e as suas formas de prevenção e punição como uma questão cultural complexa, que não se esgota na jurisdiciarização do espaço privado.

“…The Maria da Penha Law is the most expressive mechanism of this juridical conception by criminalizing domestic and family violence against women (21) . In addition to criminalization, it has brought a new approach to this type of violence, based on the concept of gender, and typifying the forms of expression of the phenomenon as physical, sexual, psychological, moral and patrimonial (10) .…”

Violência contra a mulher: o que acontece quando a Delegacia de Defesa da Mulher está fechada?

“…However, thirty-two years after the first WPPS was deployed, the service is not available at night, on holidays, and on weekends, which hinders access to a specialized and qualified service to meet this demand and weakens the idea of protection and reception brought with the creation of WPPS. Therefore, it is a setback to have to register a formal complaint of domestic violence during police after-hours, as WPPS were an alternative to this service model, which often prevented, diminished, and disqualified the situations of violence experienced by women, reinforcing macho and oppressive positions 6,7,25 .…”

“…The results also revealed that the women who sought the after-hours service had the most visible bruises, required hospitalization and referral to the IML, thus denouncing the intensity of the abuse and the severity of the complaints. Studies based on urgent and emergency health services point out that, although many women come to work in the daytime, abuse occurs predominantly at night 25 . Women seeking care in more than one service indicates the need to adapt the services of assistance to victims regarding their competences and operating hours 25 .…”
