Sumario: | This paper ethnographically analyzes a policy on social crime prevention. The main objective is to study the appropriateness of incorporating
gender issues in the context of this policy. Our results show that public
policy agents identify that gender roles may have a significant influence
on the production and acceptance of criminal practices, but in spite of
this they do not achieve mechanism to dismantle them. In fact, the
exchanges regarding gender roles between state agents and beneficiaries
produce a disadvantaged situation for women in the program instead of
modifying gender roles. |
