This research provides a critical analysis of the implementation of the 2021 Law n. 14.192 that typifies VAWIP as a crime. To do so we discuss how the law addresses, in theory, the types of VAWIP identified in the extant literature (physical, psychological, sexual, economic, and semiotic).

We argue that Brazil's VAWIP law provide the legal basis for addressing the issue, but the ambiguous and broad language used in the law leaves a lot of room for interpretation of what will typify this kind of violence. Em agosto de 2021, o governo brasileiro sancionou no Código Eleitoral e no Código Penal a tipificação da Violência Contra a Mulher na Política (VAWIP) como crime. Esta pesquisa fornece uma análise da implementação da Lei nº 14.192/2021, que tipifica violência contra a mulher na política como crime. Neste artigo, nós discutimos como a lei aborda os tipos de VAWIP identificados na literatura existente (física, psicológica, sexual, econômica e semiótica). Em seguida, discutimos a Lei VAWIP do Brasil, contextualizando-a dentro do cenário político brasileiro, as perspectivas regionais (bem como globais) sobre o assunto e comparamos a lei do Brasil com a lei modelo interamericana para prevenir, sancionar e erradicar a violência contra a mulher na vida política. Argumentamos que a Lei VAWIP do Brasil fornece a base legal para abordar a questão, mas a linguagem ambígua e ampla usada na lei deixa muito espaço para interpretação do que tipificará esse tipo de violência. 2023-10-26T18:16:18Z 2023-10-26T18:16:18Z 2023 Artigo CARNEIRO, Adriana Jacob; JALALZAI, Farida; SANTOS, Pedro A.
