In times of the COVID-19 pandemic, social isolation becomes an important measure to stop the new virus that is plaguing the world. At the same time, this measure comes up against a reality: violence against women, which mostly occurs at home. The objective of this article is, then, to promote a discursive-critical analysis of the Brazilian conjuncture that goes through domestic violence in times of pandemic, relating it to the responses of the Brazilian government and the Ministry of Women, Family and Human Rights to combat it. over there. The analysis reveals that such responses are based on an ideological bias sustained, mainly, by the nuclear notion of the family and by the negation of gender, which hinders not only concrete and effective actions to curb violence, but also disregards the intersections of race, class and fundamental to the production of public policies.

Palabras clave : Domestic violence; COVID-19; Intersectionality; Critical Discourse Analysis.
