| Sumario: | This work obtained third place in the Call for Lecciones y Ensayos Journal and the Gender and Law Program for the Dossier "Violence and/or gender discrimination and/or sexual orientation". -- The following essay focuses on the study of the institute of self-defense, in particular, its topicality, in those generalized contexts of gender-based violence in the domestic sphere, taking into consideration various legislative proposals for the reform of Article 34, paragraph 6 of the Criminal Code, and a perspective in accordance with the corpus iuris of human rights and gendersensitive. The purpose is to analyze self-defense in the light of a case in which a woman victim of gender violence invokes such cause of justification. The invisibilization of women in the understanding of this issue will be evidenced, perpetrating a structurally unequal position between men and women in relation to criminal legislation, and the persistence of gender discrimination in current case-law decisions. Likewise, some Penal Code reform projects will be analyzed which expressly introduce among the causes of justification those cases in which the defense of a battered woman does not temporarily coincide with a physical aggression, but, regardless of this issue, the existence of gender-based violence cannot be ruled out |
