SUMMARY:

This work deals with violence against women, a social and public health problem that is
discussed worldwide, originated by several factors and that must be tackled in an interdicted
way. It is directly related to the historical construction of the Family of Brazil, based on
colonialism and patriarchy, influenced by religion, bringing ingrained the concept of male
hegemony, supporting material, cultural and symbolic privileges, which attribute advantages
to men and, invisibility and naturalization, of various forms of inhumanity and aggression
against women for decades, situation that has been unveiled and fought with the conquest of
new social roles by it, accompanied by its historical evolution in Brazilian legislation,
claimed mainly by an arduous and articulated struggle of feminists. The fight against gender
violence is a complex and challenging issue, as it is embedded in male mentalities and
behaviors. Legal and institutional mechanisms were created by the public authorities to
protect victims, being the Maria da Penha Law (Law 11.340/2006), an achievement of the
feminist movement and an important instrument in coping with domestic and family violence
against women, which among others provides services for the care of the aggressor man, as a
frequency of an education and recovery center, and its psychosocial follow-up, initiatives
considered positive in the sense of transformation, deconstruction of values and overcoming
conflicts and present themselves as a strategy to face violence. The judiciary has proved to be
the main gateway to such services. This work aims to investigate, through processes that are
being processed in the Superior Court of Justice and the Supreme Court in what
circumstances, when and how the services of care for the man who are the perpetrators of
violence, have been applied by the Brazilian courts, as well as how the decisions of these
bodies interfere for the maintenance and restoration of interventions. This is a documentary
research, with a qualitative, retrospective, descriptive and exploratory approach. The use of
the documental analysis method through content analysis of judicial decisions is highlighted.
Among the results and discussions found, it is verified that as a rule, in cases that reach the
Supreme Court and STJ involving the practice of domestic and family violence against 

women and mandatory attendance of the aggressor to reflective groups, crimes are committed
with violence that offend the physical incolumidade of the victim and that are independent of
the victim's representation, and in which the agent was convicted in the execution of an open
sentence; that there is still resistance on the part of magistrates in the observance of judicial
precedents and Law 11.340/2006, making necessary jurisprudential and legislative changes
aimed at greater scope of services aimed at the aggressor man in cases of more serious
crimes, as feminicide and also of a moral nature, as a rule determined by complaint
perpetrated by the victim, as well as greater sensitization of judges in order to guide their
decisions in favor of the effective transformation and deconstruction of values and protection
of the victim.
