Abstract
El presente trabajo consiste en una investigación sobre la respuesta punitiva estatal a las mujeres víctimas de violencia masculina en la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (Argentina). Con ese fin y con una perspectiva interseccional, los objetivos consisten en indagar sobre aquello que persiguen las mujeres al recurrir a la Justicia Penal, identificar los problemas que surgen y el impacto en sus vidas del proceso, e identificar la posible necesidad de otras estrategias. Lo anterior se plantea con el fin de contribuir al análisis de la respuesta penal tal como se brinda hoy en día en un contexto específico. En la actualidad, la necesidad de la intervención del Estado desde la perspectiva del castigo en la violencia masculina contra las mujeres se encuentra siendo ampliamente debatida dentro de los feminismos. En ese sentido, este trabajo se propone identificar las teorías imperantes al respecto y definir los objetivos de la Justicia Penal, a fin de arribar a una conclusión sobre su utilidad y conveniencia, luego de contrastado con la información relevada en la investigación. Para cumplir con los objetivos, se realizaron siete entrevistas a personas que se desempeñan laboralmente en oficinas de prestación de Justicia Penal en la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, tanto hombres como mujeres, de diferentes zonas geográficas y grados de especificidad en la materia. La decisión de no entrevistar a mujeres víctimas de violencias masculina se basó en evitar la revictimización que implicaría repetir un relato y, a su vez, obtener la mayor cantidad de información posible.
