RELA??ES DE GêNERO E VIOLêNCIA CONTRA MULHERES INDíGENAS EM AMAMBAI – MS (2007-2013)

摘要

This research aims to understand some forms of violence perpetrated against women in indigenous villages in the municipality of Amambai, MS from 2007 to 2013. Regarding the gender issue, indigenous women are among the most severely impacted by multiple forms of violence and remain in the perspective of victimization. Interviews were conducted with indigenous women victims of domestic violence as well as with people involved in these conflict situations (the captain, the manager of the Amabai’s public office for women and researchers of the subject). Thus, it becomes important academic research that highlights the silent these women live by and produces visibility to the forms of domestic violence perpetrated against these indigenous women, an academic research from the gender perspective that notices these indigenous women's own perspectives to resolve this violation.
