GARCIA PENA, Ana Lidia. The privatization of marital violence in Mexico City, 18th to 20th centuries: polemics of liberalism. Intersticios sociales [online]. 2017, n.14, pp.181-205. ISSN 2007-4964.
The article strives to construct a conceptual explanation of historical changes in marital violence in the 18th, 19th and first half of the 20th centuries by polemicizing conflicts with the liberal reforms that privatized domestic violence from 1859 to 1975. A division into three historical periods is proposed. The first is the Colonial era (17th and 18th centuries), when violence was a matter of public interest under the purview of several authorities. The second begins in the mid-19th century when a series of individualistic liberal reforms transformed domestic violence into a private problem; while the third spans the late 1970s to the present, characterized by rising global social concern to eradicate this kind of violence, which is no longer understood as a private problem but as a public one, an issue that affects the human rights of women and requires approaches based on social and public health policies.
