| Sumario: | Urban violence is a central theme of the agenda of governments and civil society. It seems that one factor that difficults the full “irruption” of women as citizens in the public sphere, are the growing violence in cities, and the ones that against women are exercised, which operate as a restriction of the rights of women to the city. The feminist theoretical contributions helped to understandhow relations of inequality between men and women are expressed in the different scales of territory, housing, neighborhood, the cities. Under the distinction made between public and private space are reinforced these asymmetries between men and women, being the body the first disputed territory to be recovered by women. Despite the progress conquered, the public spaces in cities, is still predominantly male. Under the considerations expressed, the article discusses the relationship between the right of women to the city, to a life free of violence, and local governments’ policies in this field. It interrogates as well on the differential impacts of such violence in the life of women and the obstacles that these pose in the exercise of their right to the city rights. |
