La violencia de género (Ley Orgánica 1/2004), constituye un problema social grave, ya que atenta contra los Derechos Humanos de las víctimas: mujeres y sus hijos e hijas, además, en el ámbito familiar impide una convivencia sana, perjudicando notablemente el desarrollo evolutivo de los menores. La familia, que debería ser para estos chicos y chicas un ambiente adecuado de socialización, cuando existen episodios de este tipo de violencia, puede causar en ellos problemas graves de diversa índole. Ante ello, para una intervención más eficaz con estas personas, los profesionales de los distintos ámbitos sociales: Psicología, Trabajo Social, Educación, Sanitario, Fuerzas de Seguridad y otros, deberán actuar de manera coordinada, ya que es una problemática multidisciplinar. Con este trabajo se pretende, por un lado, visibilizar los sistemas de seguridad existentes en la actualidad en España, y por otro, proporcionar a los profesionales del ámbito de lo social antes descritos, que intervienen directamente con las víctimas de violencia de género, herramientas para que puedan informarles sobre estas medidas de seguridad, materia que les afecta considerablemente y, además, coadyuvaría a que se sientan más empoderadas para poder reclamar la asistencia que necesitan, al objeto de poder salir de la situación adversa en la que se encuentran. Gender violence (Organic Law 1/2004) constitutes a serious social problem, since it violates the Human Rights of the victims: women and their sons and daughters, in addition, in the family environment, prevents healthy coexistence, notably damaging the evolutionary development of minors. The family, which should be an adequate socialization environment for these boys and girls, when there are episodes of this type of violence, can cause serious problems of various kinds for them. Given this, for a more effective intervention with these people, professionals from the different social areas: Psychology, Social Work, Education, Health, Security Forces and others, must act in a coordinated way, since it is a multidisciplinary problem. This work aims, on the one hand, to make visible the security systems currently existing in Spain, and on the other, to provide the professionals in the social field described above, who intervene directly with victims of gender-based violence , tools so that they can inform them about these security measures, a matter that affects them considerably and, in addition, would help them feel more empowered to claim the assistance they need, in order to be able to get out of the adverse situation in which they find themselves .

The Impact

Gender violence is a sociocultural and historical phenomenon that affects millions of people in the world and the victims can be women or men, although women prevail. Gender-based violence between couples is one of the types most studied due to the impact they have on the family and on the development of children. The cycle of gender violence suggests that mediation is not an effective tool in the secondary prevention of gender violence between couples through the resolution of their conflicts. The nature of gender-based violence demonstrates that behaviors and behaviors are learned, as well as gender roles and stereotypes. In the process of deconstruction of these learnings and in the construction of others, the mediation process is of vital utility.

Abstract: The objective of this study was to investigate the association between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and the use of alcohol, tobacco and illicit drugs among adolescents from a Brazilian cohort. The occurrence of five ACEs, the use of alcohol and tobacco and trying illicit drugs were investigated in the 1993 Pelotas birth cohort at the age of 15 (n = 4,230). A score was created for the ACEs and their association with the use of substances was evaluated. Around 25% of adolescents consumed alcohol, 6% smoked and 2.1% reported having used drugs at least once in their lives. The ACEs were associated with the use of alcohol, tobacco and illicit drugs. A dose-response relation between the number of ACEs and the substance use was found, particularly with regard to illicit drugs. The occurrence of ACEs was positively associated with the use of alcohol, tobacco and illicit drugs among adolescents and the risk may be different for men and women. These results point to the fact that strategies for preventing the use of substances should include interventions both among adolescents and within the family environment.

In Africa, and elsewhere, no unified masculine identity exists. However, in all societies, there are expectations about how male child and adult should act and behave. Each society determines gender roles and meanings of violent acts; and these meanings also vary depending on the context. This paper presents an overview on the common male child’s socialization practices in South Africa and how these contribute to a gender hierarchy that sees women as subordinate and even perpetuate violent behaviour against women. Using South Africa as example, where one of the world’s highest rates of violent crime and gender-based violence is recorded, this paper examines the association between apartheid’s racist and violent policies and existing masculine identities.

The current chapter will allow a better understanding of refugee women's situation in global-forced migration. It also offers a comprehensive account of the ways in which refugee women's experiences of violence are shaped by gendered relations and structures. Furthermore, the chapter will analyze the interactions between the gender identity formation of men and women, the context of escape, displacement and asylum seeking, and the experience or manifestation of gender-based violence against refugee women. Finally, it also intends to illustrate how structural and symbolic violence and power relations cooperate to shape experiences of violence for refugee women and how it can influence and perpetuate interpersonal violence. In this sense, several studies are presented that demonstrate, on one hand, how gender relations are affected by escape, displacement, and asylum, and how they can create different practices of structural and symbolic violence; and, on the other hand, draw attention to the current lack of gender-specific analysis of the problem of asylum and refugees.

AbstractThe purpose of this essay is to assess how the preached word — at least the ways in which certain Christian teachings, doctrines, theologies, and moral ideologies are often framed for us through the preaching moment — has much to do with the ways in which gender roles are imagined, constructed, and lived out and even the ways in which gender-based violence and violation can be reinforced. By engaging the teachings of several prominent Pentecostal preachers as posted on YouTube, and the multiple/competing responses of the comments sections therein, I seek to demonstrated how new media tools can serve as catalysts for the production and/or reproduction of problematic understandings of gender roles, and how these mediums reinforce sexual ethics that ultimately result in human violation.

AbstractI examine how one central aspect of the family environment—sibling sex composition—affects women’s gender conformity. Using Danish administrative data, I causally estimate the effect of having a second-born brother relative to a sister for first-born women. I show that women with a brother acquire more traditional gender roles as measured through their choice of occupation and partner. This results in a stronger response to motherhood in labor market outcomes. As a relevant mechanism, I provide evidence of increased gender-specialized parenting in families with mixed-sex children. Finally, I find persistent effects on the next generation of girls.

And Gender

Today's women's issues are still very important to pay attention to because women's rights have not been fully fulfilled. The marginalization of women's rights often stems from local religious and cultural beliefs. This is where the importance of the thinking of figures like Asghar Ali Engineer is reviewed in the present. This paper discusses the thoughts of Asghar Ali Engineer about liberation theology in the matter of women's rights in Islam. Asghar Ali Engineer in many of his works has offered various kinds of deconstruction of discourses. In the matter of women's rights in Islam, he presents his opinion on inheritance, wealth, testimony, the position of women in the family, polygamy and divorce which are considered as examples of inequality. With its hermeneutic interpretation, Asghar Engineering rejects the existence of a patriarchal concept that is inherent in the classical interpretation of the Quran, which is considered discriminatory against women. Then he applies the verses of the Quran into two, namely normative and contextual, with the hope that the verses of the Quran can be reinterpreted, so that it truly becomes a universal verses of “das solen” on one side and contextual verses of “das sein” on the other. Thus, the equality of men and women can be realized and gender-based justice can be manifested.
