Resumo(s)
Intimate partner violence OPV) has been addressed by professionals who
work with women in healthcare and community facilities. They shed light on
women's suffering and vulnerability as victims of their husbands or partners,
and asking for protection. The feminist perspective, which was the mainstream approach in the
fight for women's equal rights in the 1960s, emerged as the major theoretical
framework to conceptualise violence against women in intimate relationships
(Dobash & Dobash, 1990; Walker, 1979; Yllõ, 1983). This marked research and practice about intimate partner violence, sowing the seeds for confining it
under the label of gender violence. Men are understood as being ahle to exert
control over women, a belief that is deep-rooted in a patriarchal society that
proclaims women's diminished judgement, judiciousness and self-sufficiency.
