STALKING : novatio legis incriminadora a necessidade de um novo tipo penal para combater a violência contra a mulher

Abstract

Throughout history, women had their basic rights suppressed, with subjugation, violence against women grew. Within this context, starting from the international to the national vision, the text shows an overview of the historical-social evolution of women's achievements. In the face of so many international instruments signed and ratified on the theme of international protection of women's rights, the theme of this dissertation arises, in the question of whether Brazilian legislation is effective in this protection. The problem lies in questioning whether the international law of women is being respected in Brazil, and whether there is gender equity within that society. Amongst several practices of violence against women is the conduct of Stalking, which is considered by many to be gender-based violence. The proof is that both sexes can suffer from constant persecution, however, research in several countries shows that 80% of cases are women victims. The text seeks to demonstrate that there is a need for a new incriminating legislation for the conduct of insidious persecution as a new tool to implement the protection of women's rights in the direct country. The justification for this work occurs despite the fact that Brazil is a signatory to several Treaties and Conventions on the Law of Women, within its territory there is a distance of equity between genders. Within this context, the objective emerges, which is the lack of an anti-Stalking Law, as a new tool to implement protection for women. The methodology used for this work will be the inductive method, and the secondary source indirect documentation technique was used in the research. I try as an objective an exploratory bibliographic stamp.
