Concessão de medidas protetivas da Lei Maria da Penha e os casos de violência doméstica em tempos de pandemia no Espírito Santo

Abstract

This project discusses how the Covid-19 virus, which brought about social isolation, impacted the number of cases of domestic violence in Brazil and the granting of emergency protective measures, mainly in the State of Espírito Santo and in the municipality of Vitória / ES , from March 2020 to May 2020. It will be demonstrated how women constantly suffer from this social problem and how their fundamental rights are hurt. In the first chapter, Pierre Bourdieu's theory of male domination will be used. In the second, the consequences of patriarchy for women will be discussed. And finally, in the third and last chapter, the data made available by the Brazilian Forum on Public Security (FBSP) and some local newspaper reports will demonstrate whether there was an increase, stability or decrease in the aggressions and concessions of emergency protective measures in March from 2020 to May 2020 in Brazil. Violence against women, despite the struggle of feminists and countless conquests that Brazil has acquired, such as Law 11.340 / 2006, Law Maria da Penha, is growing, and studies that focus on this subject are very important, so that women get the recognition they deserve.
