LAIA, Sérgio  e  CALDAS, Heloisa. Violence and aggression: differences starting at the language and the unnameable femininity. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2016, vol.16, n.3, pp. 972-992. ISSN 1808-4281.

Guided by psychoanalytical references, this article discusses the distinction between aggression and violence starting at the language and its limits in naming the femininity. Among discussed aspects of the current violence stand its progressive increase, its displacement from the private to the public space, its forms of manifestation within families. In order to address more specifically the violence directed against women, an investigation is pursued on the conditions that engender it as well as the prospects of solutions to the conflicts that it entails. A new way to approach the feminine turns out to be a solution as long as a step forward can be taken in women's empowerment policies, more settled in sexual equality, and subjective disparities can be dealt more effectively.

Palavras-chave : aggression; violence; feminine; language.
