In this article we will explore the multiple violences that women and LGBTQIA+ people have survived in Chilean Recent History, as well as the resistances of these subjects to these violences. Here we will also present some of the most current and innovative theoretical contributions regarding four types of violence: (1) structural violence due to neoliberal, heteropatriarchal and racist foundations; (2) gendered and sexualized state terrorism; (3) family violence or intimate partner violence and (4) homo-lesbo-transfobic hate crimes. Following this, we will analyze how these different violences have been studied through Recent Chilean historiography. And, finally, we will close with a few reflections concerning the difficulties involved with studying, investigating and teaching violences against women and LGBTQIA+ people in Chilean History Departments.
