Violência contra mulheres no período da Pandemia COVID-19: seu agravamento, seus determinantes e as políticas sociais de enfrentamento no município de Natal/RN

Abstract

This course conclusion work aims to review reported cases of violence against women in the pandemic period of Covid-19 in 2020, understanding what was done during this time-out and an analysis of quantitative and qualitative data as opposed to the approach of addressing the contribution of patriarchy legitimized by the capitalist system as an inflammatory factor for domestic violence that appropriates the body and life of women to their partners. The scenario under review is set before statistics that are contrasted in the stated pandemic period of 2020. The figures, according to the Forum of Violence Against Women 2020, revealed a significant decrease in face-to-face complaints and provision of protective measures with an increase of up to 300% of recorded feminicides during the quarantine period in some states of Brazil. An understanding of some of the measures taken at the federal, state and municipal levels, mainly in the city of Natal/RN, has been gained. A conclusion has been arrived at, that in the midst of an environment of chaos in the daily lives of women that was established prior to the pandemic, it became inevitable for women to be trapped with the algoz inside the chaotic homes during the pandemic. As some women sought to be safe from death caused by Covid-19, chances of possibly dying as a result of acts of domestic violence without the State being aware of the deaths became prevalent.
