The aim of this work is to understand how civil society networks engaged in policies for the prevention and countering of gender-based violence can effectively act and influence the political agenda, and, more specifically, how political participation is understood and articulated in terms of constructing democracy based on the non-violation of human rights. In this regard, analyzing the relationship between institutions and culture makes it possible to codify thedialectic between tension, trust, and transformation, starting from the subjective experiences of encounters with anti-violence centers, which are embedded in relations of intersubjective and political trust. The working hypothesis is that the dialectic between tension and trust - interpreted through the relationship between culture and institutions - may give rise to dynamics of transformation within local contexts and territories.

Abstract
The aim of this work is to understand how civil society networks engaged in policies for the prevention and countering of gender-based violence can effectively act and influence the political agenda, and, more specifically, how political participation is understood and articulated in terms of constructing democracy based on the non-violation of human rights. In this regard, analyzing the relationship between institutions and culture makes it possible to codify thedialectic between tension, trust, and transformation, starting from the subjective experiences of encounters with anti-violence centers, which are embedded in relations of intersubjective and political trust. The working hypothesis is that the dialectic between tension and trust - interpreted through the relationship between culture and institutions - may give rise to dynamics of transformation within local contexts and territories.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
