Violencia Intrafamiliar en Colombia: Causalidad y Creencias. (Spanish)

Domestic Violence in Colombia: Causality and Beliefs. (English)

This article is derived from a qualitative research carried out with the content analysis technique. It studies the cultural beliefs about domestic violence in Colombia prior to the pandemic generated by Covid-19, seeks to make them visible, show their effects, invite intervention and also provide some comprehensive cultural elements for those who are determined to analyze the increase in cases and the decrease in complaints of these in 2020, a period that coincides with the period of national mandatory confinement due to the pandemic. The sample is made up of 81 academic articles. In the results, it was found that inequity in the use of power, violent behaviors learned in the family, and economic and emotional dependence appear among its main causative factors. What was found is significant because in order to understand this type of violence and design promotion and prevention programs, in addition to analyzing the biological, economic and social causes, it is also necessary to know and intervene in the beliefs that circulate in the social contexts where this violence is present.
