Item type:Ítem, Prácticas y percepciones de la violencia simbólica en mujeres de un sector rural(Universidad Técnica de Ambato, Facultad de Jurisprudencia y Ciencias Sociales, Carrera de Trabajo Social, 2026-01-15) ;Moreta Manobanda, Adriana FernandaAguilar Rodríguez, FredyThe research analyzes the practices and perceptions of symbolic violence among rural women in the commune of San Juan de la Costa, located in the province of Osorno, in southern Chile. Drawing on the ideas of Pierre Bourdieu, it is understood that this type of violence operates silently through everyday gestures and practices that often go unnoticed but reinforce the subordination of women and maintain entrenched inequalities in areas such as family, school, and work. Within the context analyzed, these dynamics are more profound due to geographical isolation, the persistence of cultural traditions, educational limitations, the burden of care within the home, and the lack of public policies adapted to this territory. Methodologically, the research was conducted using a qualitative approach, with semi-structured interviews to gather as much relevant information as possible from their life stories. An observation guide was also used during field visits, and direct observation was carried out on site to identify women who met the study criteria. The results show that women tend to internalize inequality as part of their “natural order,” accepting different forms of devaluation and exclusion as normal. The influence of family, religion, school dynamics, and the amito was identified in the reproduction of discourses that justify male authority and diminish the female voice. Challenges for Social Work were also identified, including the urgent need for interventions with an ethnic focus, community support, strengthening of formal networks within the sector, and management of viable public policies designed for this vulnerable group. The study concludes that symbolic violence in rural areas is a structural phenomenon that requires contextualized public policies, sustained prevention strategies, and an interdisciplinary approach that allows for the transformation of the cultural foundations that sustain inequality
