CHRISTIANSEN, María L. The Violence of the "Anti-violence": A Criticism of the Mexican Legislation Against Gender-based Violence. Psicol. caribe [online]. 2014, vol.31, n.3, pp.495-530. ISSN 2011-7485.  https://doi.org/10.14482/psdc.31.3.5552.

There's no doubt that the topic of domestic violence is a major concern for social scientists and for people who design public policies in Mexico. The General Law of Women's Access to a Life Free of Violence (GLWAL-FV) represents a clear example of the connection between knowledge and power, and boasts an innovative character in epistemological terms by attempting to show that it is multidimensional, objective, ecological, complex and interdisciplinary. The objective of this article is to present a critical reflection on each of these claims, after which it will conclude that there are inconsistencies and frivolities that deserve a serious and urgent review of its foundations.

Palavras-chave : violence; GLWALFV; objectivity; complexity; interdisciplinarity.
