Abstract(s)
O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar os fatores que influenciam a permanência de homens em relacionamentos abusivos, avaliando de que forma as construções sociais da masculinidade contribuem para a reprodução da violência de género. A investigação adotou uma abordagem qualitativa, com entrevistas semiestruturadas realizadas a vinte homens inseridos em programas de responsabilização judicial.
Os resultados evidenciaram seis categorias principais: histórico familiar de violência; fatores socioeconómicos; perceção distorcida da violência; ciclo de violência e reconciliação; dependência emocional; e participação em programas de reeducação.
Constatou-se que a permanência dos homens em vínculos abusivos decorre da interação entre fatores históricos, emocionais e estruturais, sendo reforçada pela masculinidade hegemónica e pela fragilidade institucional dos mecanismos de responsabilização.
Conclui-se que a violência doméstica é um fenómeno multidimensional que exige políticas públicas integradas, capazes de articular prevenção, responsabilização e apoio psicossocial. Ao dar voz aos homens agressores, este estudo contribui para o aprofundamento do conhecimento académico e oferece subsídios para estratégias de intervenção e formulação de políticas públicas mais eficazes no combate à violência de género.
This study aimed to analyze the factors that influence the persistence of men in abusive relationships, examining how social constructions of masculinity contribute to the reproduction of gender-based violence. A qualitative approach was adopted, using semistructured interviews with twenty men enrolled in court-mandated accountability programs. The findings revealed six main categories: family history of violence, socioeconomic factors, distorted perceptions of violence, the cycle of abuse and reconciliation, emotional dependence, and participation in reeducation programs. Results indicate that men’s persistence in abusive relationships arises from the interplay of historical, emotional, and structural factors, reinforced by hegemonic masculinity and the institutional fragility of accountability mechanisms. It is concluded that domestic violence is a multidimensional phenomenon that requires integrated public policies combining prevention, accountability, and psychosocial support. By giving voice to male aggressors, this study contributes to academic knowledge and provides insights for intervention strategies and the development of more effective public policies to address gender-based violence.
