A (des)continuidade de políticas públicas: a ação “casa da mulher brasileira” como política de enfrentamento à violência de gênero contra a mulher

Abstract

Numerous national, regional, and local public policies to confront violence against women in Brazil are already a reality. As the years go by, public policies for women are created by the government in power to make the dialogue between the Civil Society and the State more efficient and real. It is evident that the phenomenon of violence against gender goes through governments, mandates, and even generations. Therefore, it is necessary to discuss about the continuity and discontinuity of these public policies created to support women who are victims of violence. These policies should be extended programs and their goal should be to really eradicate this phenomenon, not only to show that there was a concern with the matter during a mandate. Thus, this study seeks to analyze the program Casa da Mulher Brasileira and the factors that may have been contributing to its discontinuity, as well as other public policies addressed to the matter of gender. The main goal here is to understand the factors that disfavor the continuity of public policies for the gender violence against women in Brazil, especially the program Casa da Mulher Brasileira. In all its methodological aspects, it is an exploratory study with documentary bibliographical research. Methodological procedures that favor intense methodologies to deeply get to know the reality through half structured interview have been used. Regarding the data analysis, the plan of analysis and information processing includes the Laurence Bardin’s Content Analysis.
