Violência contra a mulher: polícia comunitária como Instrumento de eficácia das medidas de prevenção integrada, assistencial e de urgência da lei Maria da Penha

Abstract

Domestic and familiar violence has complexity as its clearest characteristic. Present in different stratums, ethnicities, cultures, educational levels, ages and religions, the ideology of the male gender supremacy has existed through many civilizations and historical periods, overcoming women as “the fragile sex”, kind and uncapable. The patriarcal system has put men in the center of gender relations, represented symbolically for the image of the masculine, always strong, ruse, political, overbearing and owner of the woman. The objetification of the female sex has invaded the Brazilian Law, evidencing the public authorities’ stance in a protectorship of gender inequality, in policies that reaffirmed the convervatory stance of the female character as dominated one. When analyzing the legislation applied ever since Brazil was a colony, it is possible to identify the slowness of the female emancipatory proccess. From the rigid Philippine laws, in 1608, which allowed the betrayed husband to assassinate his adulterous wife until Maria da Pena Law, in 2006, which chancels full protection and assistence to women who are victims of domestic violence, there were more than 500 years of struggle, that can not have, because of the formal attainment of this Law, the end of the libertary proccess of the female gender. The Law, to become real in lives of women who are victims of this violence, needs deep instrumentalization by the brazilian Government, as to go beyond the abstract the exercise of warranties already determined by the formal Laws. Among these warranty instruments, Maria da Penha Law has highlighted the importance of incorporation, training and specialization of the public security task forces, clearing up how important are these services to achieve the real fruition of the promised formal law. Community Police, as an adequebility tool for the exercise of constabulary authority to the waaranty values of 1988 Constitution, is the technology indispensable to the transformations that the security task forces need to incorporate, as a model that assures the full protection and assistence measures that deal with Maria da Penha Law. The Military Police of the state of Ceará offers a service of approach, care, refuging and protection of women who are victims of domestic and familiar violence, guided through the philosophy of Communitary Police. Research realized with a sample of these attended women demonstrates, very deeply, how Maria da Penha Law needs specilized task forces to assure the protection measures stablished in the immaterial plan.
