Abstract
Domestic and sexual violence is a complex multidimensional problem, which among other important variables involved has been built socio-culturally through social learning rooted in a logic of gender inequality that reproduces hierarchical violence of power. Based on a critical reflection on the traditional paradigms of masculinity and feminity, in this work we give you a specific weight to the socio-symbolic node formed between gender and violence. We address this problem from social psychology and sociology, which is based on a methodology based on a first sample of data on violence in public and domestic space in the Mérida State. Venezuela (1990-1997) and finally we put forward a constructive proposal for sexist socialisation/education mechanisms — breaking down the node of gender-based violence — which involves democratising the multiple social spaces, and even re-dimensioning domestic space as a shield to create other possibilities for socialisation and change in symbolisation and breeding patterns.
