Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyze the narrative change of men who have performed gender-based violence, through their transit in violent men programs. A sample of 28 narrative interviews with men (in different institutional stages) was analyzed thematically. The incorporation of new discursive frameworks, and the passage from a victim-blaming discourse to one of self-blame and/or blaming of the context stand out.
