| Summary: | This article analyzes relationships between interventions with perpetrators of domestic and family violence and Brazil’s Maria da Penha Law. It examines the General Recommendations and Guidelines drafted by the Secretariat for Women’s Policies in 2008. The analyses, based on specialized literature, reports and research on the subject, emphasize that while enactment of the Maria da Penha Law provided a legal framework and broadening of the discussion on the subject, it also created challenges for earlier initiatives, which were structured in another legal and political context. |
