Abstract(s)
A investigação aqui abordada – o acolhimento de mulheres vítimas de violência doméstica – é
apoiada essencialmente nos registos de um passado recente, aproximadamente até à primeira
metade do século passado, que assumia o lar como seguro e harmonioso. Nas últimas décadas são
estes os motivos, pelos quais se assumiu a existência da violência doméstica como efetivo
problema de caris social e de saúde pública, graças ao entendimento desse espaço, como não
seguro.
Entendendo que durante séculos os modos de domínio masculino dificultaram a possibilidade de
levantar questões sobre as relações entre mulheres e homens e ainda o afastamento das mesmas
do campo de debate público, continua a necessidade de naturalizar a suposta posição de
inferioridade das mulheres relativamente à sua diferença biológica. Assim, o feminismo dos anos
1960-70 conseguiu mostrar o caráter não natural desta divisão de valores sexuais. Desta forma,
surgem as casas de abrigo, configuradas como intervenção institucional, sendo este considerado
seguro quando, por motivos de violência doméstica, mulheres se veem obrigadas a abandonar a
sua casa para fugir dos seus companheiros e da violência.
Desta forma, na componente prática pretende-se refletir a preocupação, propondo confrontar
esta realidade e sugerir uma resposta arquitetónica para uma casa de abrigo, na cidade da Covilhã,
onde serão acolhidas, provisoriamente, mulheres vítimas de violência doméstica, nomeadamente
de maus tratos físicos, psicológicos e crimes sexuais, bem como os seus filhos e/ou filhas ou outras
crianças que lhe estejam legalmente entregues.
The research portrayed here is based, essentially on the records of a recent past, approximately until the first half of the last century, which assumed the home as safe and harmonious. In recent decades these are the reasons why the existence domestic violence has been assumed as an effective problem of social and public health issues, thanks to the understanding of this space as unsafe. Understanding that for centuries the modes of male dominance have made it difficult to raise questions about the relationships between women and men and also the removal of them from the field of public debate, there is still a need to naturalize the supposed position of inferiority of women in relation to their biological difference. Thus, the feminism of the 1960s-70s succeeded in showing the unnatural character of this division of sexual values. In this way, shelters, configured as institutional intervention, are considered safe when, for reasons of domestic violence, women are forced to leave their homes to escape their partners and violence. Thus, in the practical component it is intended to reflect the concern, proposing to confront this reality and suggest an architectural design of a shelter, where women victims of domestic violence will be temporarily welcomed, namely physical, psychological and sexual crimes, as well as their children or other children who are legally handed to them.
