Análisis de la violencia intrafamiliar durante pandemia COVID-19 en el Cantón Azogues

Abstract

This research established the causes of increased domestic violence during the pandemic. Through the historical-logical method, it was possible to demonstrate the antecedents of women's empowerment that marked history so that their rights would be recognized, and together with it, all the rights of the members of the family nucleus in the Ecuadorian legal system. In addition, the analytical-synthetic method was used, and the results obtained through the surveys conducted in the different parishes were statistically analyzed, getting important characteristics. Finally, the inductive method was used to interview several victims at the "Paqarina" foster home to verify the causes. Two ways of the study were used; the first was the interview technique, which led to qualitative research on the causes of this type of violence. The second was the survey technique applied in the quantitative study. Likewise, all those bibliographic files used within the research work were made. As a result, it was possible to show that intrafamilial violence worsened during the pandemic due to several causes, such as lack of harmony and economic situation.
