- Abstract
This article is a historico-sociological account of the process of state intervention from 1995 to 2010 in the prevention, attention to and eradication of violence suffered by women in Colombia, since the Inter- American Convention (Belem do Para) to prevent, pun ish and eradicate violence against women was ratified, when the Ministry of Defense promulgated apublic policy, including gender violence as a an important concern. To fulfill this purpose the judicial norms, national public policies, reports by women's organizations, conventions and reports by international agencies were revised. The methodology used, due to the sources and approach used in the study, is based on the analysis of documents from the view point of contemporary judicial sociology. Theoretically we based our analysis on the historical and sociological constructivist perspective, appealing to gender theory, Fernand Braudel's proposed long-duration history and Pierre Bourdieu's concept of social field.
