CHALLENGES AND PERSPECTIVES OF PROTECTION AGAINST RECIDIVISM IN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW

Abstract

This article analyzes the challenges and perspectives related to coping with recidivism in cases of domestic violence. Its relevance is justified by the need to improve existing institutional mechanisms, especially the protective measures provided for by the Maria da Penha Law, whose practical effectiveness still faces limitations, largely due to insufficient training of the professionals responsible for implementing and monitoring these measures. The general objective is to investigate contemporary approaches capable of reducing recidivism, highlighting as specific objectives the analysis of strategies aimed at the re-education of aggressors and the interinstitutional articulation of public policies. Methodologically, the research was developed through a systematic review of scientific articles published in national journals, selected through the CAPES Journals portal, complemented by other academic publications relevant to the theme. The results showed that psychological interventions aimed at deconstructing gender stereotypes and innovative approaches such as Systemic Law can contribute significantly to reducing recidivism. It is concluded that, despite the advances brought about by the Maria da Penha Law, the effective confrontation of domestic violence requires not only immediate protective measures, but also integrated multidisciplinary strategies, with emphasis on the training of the professionals involved and the development of socio-educational actions with aggressors and victims.
