AGRAVAMENTO DA VIOLÊNCIA DE GÊNERO NO CONTEXTO DA PANDEMIA DA COVID-19

This work reflects on the aggravation of gender violence in the time of the Covid-19 pandemic, with a national and international approach. Based on a bibliographic research, a narrative is proposed defending the perception that the roots of the culture of violence in Western capitalist societies support the maintenance of the modern bourgeois order, with parameters in a referential model of androcentric organization. In this research, the misinterpretations about the pandemic as being responsible for the increase in the phenomenon of gender violence are refuted, as this statement denies the historicity of gender violence. It is argued that the promotion of women's autonomy, not only from a material point of view, is of paramount importance for fighting gender-based violence
