    EXPULSIONS AND RECEPTIONS: PALESTINIAN IRAQ WAR REFUGEES IN THE BRAZILIAN NATION-STATE by BAHIA MICHELINE MUNEM A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Women’s and Gender Studies Written under the direction of Ana Y. Ramos-Zayas And approved by _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey May, 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Expulsions and Receptions: Palestinian Iraq War Refugees in the Brazilian Nation-state By BAHIA MICHELINE MUNEM Dissertation Director: Ana Y. Ramos-Zayas This dissertation examines the resettlement of a group of Palestinian Iraq War refugees in Brazil. In 2007, Latin America's largest democracy and self-proclaimed racial democracy made what it claimed was a humanitarian overture by resettling 108 Palestinian refugees displaced from Baghdad as a result of the Iraq War. The majority of them had escaped from Baghdad in 2003 and had been living for nearly five years in a makeshift refugee camp on the border of Jordan and Iraq. Utilizing a multi-method approach, this work examines how Brazil, with its long history of Arab migration, incorporates this specific re-diasporized group into the folds of its much-touted racial democracy, an important arm of Brazilian exceptionalism. In order to address the particularity of Palestinian refugees, and while considering pluralism discourses and other important socio-political dynamics, I engage and extend Edward Said’s framework of Orientalism by analyzing its machinations in Brazil. To closely assess the particularity of the resettled Palestinian refugees (but also Arabs more generally), I consider how already stereotyped Brazilians construct Palestinians in Brazil through an Orientalist lens.

  • Network Against Domestic Violence
    Network against Domestic Violence: Mapping out the implementation of the Maria da Penha Law in the Contagem – Belo Horizonte Metropolitan Area. Sergio Parreiras Institute of Latin American Studies, Department of Spanish, Portuguese and Latin American Studies Master´s Degree 30 HE Latin American Studies Master Program in Latin American Studies, 120 HE Spring Term 2012 Supervisor: Thais Machado - Borges Network against Domestic Violence: Mapping out the Implementation of the Maria da Penha in the Contagem- Belo Horizonte Area. Sergio Parreiras Abstract The purpose of this dissertation is to examine the implementation process of Law 11.340/06, commonly known as the Maria da Penha Law, through a macro-study conducted in the Contagem– Belo Horizonte metropolitan area. Law 11.340/06 was created in 2006 by the Brazilian government to curb and prevent domestic violence in the country. This newly created law is important because domestic violence accounts for 70 % of all homicides against women in Brazil. In order to conduct this study, the researcher traveled to Brazil during the month of November 2011, to collect data from interviews, seminars, events, newspapers, published reports, a questionnaire, and field observations. The researcher discovered that several agencies from all three levels of the government formed the Network against Domestic Violence to enforce Law 11.340/06 and to assist abused women. However, despite many positive changes, the agencies continue to face strong resistance. The lack of political will is the major factor driving the performance of these agencies and the implementation of Law 11.340/06.

Brazil in the Inter- American Commission on Human Rights: An Analysis of the Impacts of the Convention of Belém do Pará in the Federal Legislation Aléxia Duarte Torres† INTRODUCTION In 1995, Brazil ratified the Inter-American Convention on the Prevention, Punishment, and Eradication of Violence Against Women, also known as the Convention of Belém do Pará, an international treaty 1 focused on violence against women. In 1992, Brazil also signed the American Convention on Human Rights, which made possible the processing of reports of human rights violations initiated by NGOs and victims. In the second half of the 1990s, a relevant case was sent to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights: the case Maria da Penha. This article analyzes the impacts of the case in the federal legislation, particularly the implementation of Law nº 11.340/2006, known as ‚Maria da Penha Law,‛ drafted for feminist organizations and submitted by the National Congress in 2004. This article also presents the additional effects of the law as the redefinition of the family institution, and the inclusion of the gender ideology. I.

  • Breaking the Cycle: the Impact of Legal Reforms on Domestic Violence
    Breaking the Cycle: The Impact of Legal Reforms on Domestic Violence Claudio Ferraz∗ Laura Schiavony PUC-Rio UFJF February 15, 2019 Abstract Domestic violence is a widespread phenomenon. Despite the implementation of several policies addressing its reduction, causal evidence on their effects is scarce and controversial. This paper evaluates the impact of a legal reform aimed at curbing domestic violence in Brazil. We exploit the fact that while trends of male and female domestic violence are very similar before its introduction, the law covers only women. The legal reform reduced female homicides due to household aggression by 9 percent. The effects were stronger for less educated and black women– those more likely to have low bargaining power within their households.

Do- mestic violence, however, is still a major public policy concern in many societies. The World Health Organization estimates that one third of all women who have been in a relationship have experienced violence by their intimate partner (World Health Organization(2013)). Poor women, in particular, are significantly more likely to suffer from intimate-partner violence (IPV) due to the lack of exit options.

  • The Maria Da Penha Law and the Media: Understanding the Adoption of Human Rights Norms on Domestic Violence in Brazil
    The Maria da Penha Law and the Media: Understanding the Adoption of Human Rights Norms on Domestic Violence in Brazil Marina Wilbraham HRTS W3996 Human Rights Thesis Seminar – Spring 2019 Institute for the Study of Human Rights Columbia University i ABSTRACT The Maria da Penha Law and the Media: Understanding the Adoption of Human Rights Norms on Domestic Violence in Brazil Marina Wilbraham In 2006, Brazil enacted a law on domestic violence in response to an Inter-American Commission on Human Rights decision condemning the country for denying justice to Maria da Penha, after whom the law was named. Twelve years later, in a turbulent political climate, quantitative studies suggest rates of violence against women are higher than ever. Has the law, which directly replicates human rights norms, effected genuine societal changes that protect women? This paper examines 50 online news stories on the Maria da Penha Law and finds that, although the implementation of the law is imperfect, the spread of human rights norms appears to have been significant. Media discourse suggests that the dominant narrative on the law takes protections for women to be necessary, brings attention to issues in its implementation, and attempts to increase rights-consciousness among the public. Lastly, the news stories suggest that Maria da Penha herself, through her unique positionality in relation to the law, plays an important role in making these international standards resonate with Brazilians. i TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter 1: Introduction ........................................................................................................ 1 Chapter 2: From Impunity to Protection .............................................................................. 9 2.1 The Human Rights Framework on Domestic Violence ..................................................................... 9 2.2 State Indifference to Domestic Violence ........................................................................................
