Resumo
This work investigates how violence against women in Brazil structurally expresses and reproduces the articulation between patriarchy, racism, and capitalism, configured as the “symbiotic knot,” described by Heleieth Saffioti. It investigates two questions: What is the relationship between patriarchy oppression and violence against women? Which philosophical concepts can be mobilized to analyze violence against women as an expression of these forms of oppression? Methodologically, it combines a literature review with the analysis of secondary data for the period 2019–2025, drawn from the Brazilian Public Security Yearbook of the Brazilian Forum on Public Security (FBSP), the Atlas of Violence (Institute for Applied Economic Research and FBSP), and the National Survey on Violence against Women (DataSenado). Chapter 1 maps the symbiotic knot—capitalism, patriarchy, and racism—as well as its formulation, in dialogue with intersectionality. Chapter 2 discusses gender, power, and violence, culminating in empirical analyses. The findings indicate the concentration of femicides in the home and in intimate relationships, the overrepresentation of Black women, and the aggravation produced by material and territorial vulnerabilities. This work concludes that gender-based violence remains functional to the reproduction of the social order as long as the mechanisms of the symbiotic knot persist; that women’s emancipation is inseparable from a simultaneous critique of class exploitation and racism; and that the symbiotic knot remains current and applicable both for interpreting Brazilian reality and for guiding transformative action.
