(Re)Pensando violência de gênero e transfeminicídio como violação de Direitos Humanos

Abstract

The present work aims to problematize a strictly legal approach to situations of gender violence. To do so, we will start with a case study involving a transfeminicide and the family's search for a legal solution to similar cases. Next, we will problematize the human rights legislation applicable to the case in Brazil, the strictly legal procedures and the possible instruments for the judicialization of the case presented. Finally, our perspective will be to propose a methodology based on an epistemology-other, seeking to expand the possibilities posed by the positivist legal view, from the decolonial turn (Water Mignolo) and the queer caboclo (Estêvão Fernandes and Fabiano Gontijo)
