Resumo

Seeking to understand the role of the State in protecting and guaranteeing the Human Rights, the present work starts from the problem “Is the Democratic State of Law a potential author of the violations and discrimination that plague Brazilian women?”, To analyze the historical processes of consolidation of women's rights and their internalization by state institutions; investigate actions and omissions of the State and its agents that affect, positively or negatively, these rights; and to verify the hypothesis of violence against women tolerated or practiced by the State in the sphere of the Three Powers, especially the Judiciary. Through a qualitative approach, which used the Historical-Dialectical Materialistic Method, using legal and dogmatic procedures, the research was carried out through Bibliographic Review and Documentary Research. The consolidation of women's rights as Human Rights brought advances towards women's emancipation and enshrined women as citizens. The struggles against violations of women's freedom have been internalized by Brazil through its own historical processes and have affected a series of legislative changes based on the principle of isonomy and human dignity, among which the 1988 Federal Constitution and the protection laws against various forms of violence, arising from criminal law. However, in spite of the significant achievements, the present work, through data collection and graph display related to the active political participation of women in Brazil, reveals that the theoretical notion of equality is far from the factual reality, as the male domination scenario reveals countless material and discursive setbacks, which result in constant violations of women's dignity and affect women's human rights, with emphasis on reproductive and sexual rights. Through analysis of data on the rates of domestic and sexual violence, feminicide and maternal mortality, the study questions whether the state's tolerance, omission or action constitutes, in itself, a form of violence, legitimized through public institutions. In view of the role of the Judiciary in gender relations, a concrete case is investigated through a procedural analysis of the records and discourse, illustrating institutional violence motivated by gender.
