The purpose of this study is to understand the causes of gender violence, specifically violence against women; to describe the public policies implemented in the fight against violence, focusing on Law 11,340 / 2006 and above all to contextualize the legislation in force in the scope of emergency measures, focusing on the aggressor and the aggressor.
