A critical reflection on the experience at Courts of female victims of gender violence is the aim of this paper. Provincial, national and international laws are the framework for the analysis. The raw material are their reports ( assesed from the perspective of the newest writings on the issue) which stress the differences between the official discourse of the Administration of Justice and the victims' "accounts".
Three different questions have been asked to guide our research:
- Are gender violence and poverty , factors linked to the lack of an effective Access to Justice?
- Which are the new factors observed everywhere and those which are present only in Latin America?
- Are there any changes in the social stereotypes which clear and ease the womens' path towards the administration of justice?
En este artículo reflexionamos críticamente sobre la situación de las mujeres en La Plata-Argentina que padecen violencia de género cuando acceden a la administración de justicia.
Para ello tomamos como marco referencial la normativa provincial, nacional e internacional.
Utilizamos como insumo los testimonios de las mujeres, analizados a la luz de la literatura actual, que polemiza sobre la compleja y a veces contradictoria relación entre el discurso "oficial" de la Administración de justicia y los "relatos" de las mujeres.
Nos interrogamos sobre tres ejes de trabajo que han orientado nuestra producción:
- ¿Qué intersecciones visualizamos entre violencia de género y pobreza como factores que obstaculizan el acceso a la justicia?
- ¿Qué factores nuevos aparecen en contextos globalizados, y cuales son específicos de América Latina?
- ¿Se observan cambios en los estereotipos sociales que despejan el camino de las mujeres a la administración de justicia?
