This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La violencia contra las mujeres es una problemática central en el marco de la equidad de género y de sociedades que aspiran a ser más igualitarias. Es en los años setenta y ochenta cuando se comienza a reconocer de manera generalizada la gravedad de este problema. En esta lucha, se enuncian como centrales los movimientos feministas y los estudios de género, que han denunciado esta situación como experiencias transversales en la vida de las mujeres. Con el fin de analizar críticamente las formas distintivas que cobra este fenómeno, el enfoque teórico feminista ha elaborado modelos para comprender y cuestionar el peso de la violencia en la vida de las mujeres. Justamente, dicho enfoque ha planteado la urgencia por considerar el género como un elemento constitutivo de las relaciones de poder. En este contexto, las ciencias sociales han tenido un papel fundamental al abordar esta temática, considerando y analizando la dimensión estructural y transversal a las dinámicas sociales de género. Desde estas bases, el presente libro tiene como objetivo ahondar en las reflexiones realizadas desde las ciencias sociales y sus disciplinas, tales como la psicología, sociología, antropología, historia y comunicación, para abordar la violencia de género, atendiendo de manera particular a cuáles han sido las principales reflexiones y nudos críticos que desde éstas se han enunciado. Así, este libro pretende ser un aporte para la discusión crítica de la violencia de género desde una mirada disciplinar, siempre comprendiendo que la erradicación de la violencia estructural contra las mujeres es un horizonte común a la sociedad, incluida la academia y las diversas instancias de investigación.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro aproxima al lector a un estudio del grave problema social de la violencia contra la mujer y el maltrato familiar, así como señala la necesidad de romper el silencio de la sociedad ante una situación de violencia contra la mujeres y los miembros del grupo familiar, bajo una óptica global. La violencia intrafamiliar es considerada una violencia de género, una vez que está basada en las desigualdades de poder que existen entre hombres y mujeres, contribuyendo a perpetuar la discriminación, opresión y los maltratros cometidos en el hogar. Es urgente una sanción efectiva de los Estados, a fin de que por medio de instrumentos nacionales e internacionales sea posible prevenir y erradicar este tipo de violencia, siendo evidente que esta causa no es contra el hombre, sino contra los agresores. Así pues, es imprescindible una toma de conciencia social de la gravedad de este flagelo social para que se pueda combatir.

Download or read book Terrorizing Women written by Rosa-Linda Fregoso and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 600 women and girls have been murdered and more than 1,000 have disappeared in the Mexican state of Chihuahua since 1993. Violence against women has increased throughout Mexico and in other countries, including Argentina, Costa Rica, Guatemala, and Peru. Law enforcement officials have often failed or refused to undertake investigations and prosecutions, creating a climate of impunity for perpetrators and denying truth and justice to survivors of violence and victims’ relatives. Terrorizing Women is an impassioned yet rigorously analytical response to the escalation in violence against women in Latin America during the past two decades. It is part of a feminist effort to categorize violence rooted in gendered power structures as a violation of human rights. The analytical framework of feminicide is crucial to that effort, as the editors explain in their introduction. They define feminicide as gender-based violence that implicates both the state (directly or indirectly) and individual perpetrators. It is structural violence rooted in social, political, economic, and cultural inequalities. Terrorizing Women brings together essays by feminist and human rights activists, attorneys, and scholars from Latin America and the United States, as well as testimonios by relatives of women who were disappeared or murdered. In addition to investigating egregious violations of women’s human rights, the contributors consider feminicide in relation to neoliberal economic policies, the violent legacies of military regimes, and the sexual fetishization of women’s bodies. They suggest strategies for confronting feminicide; propose legal, political, and social routes for redressing injustices; and track alternative remedies generated by the communities affected by gender-based violence. In a photo essay portraying the justice movement in Chihuahua, relatives of disappeared and murdered women bear witness to feminicide and demand accountability.

Download or read book Writing Terror on the Bodies of Women written by Sarah England and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-08-15 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing Terror on the Bodies of Women: Media Coverage of Violence against Women in Guatemala analyzes the scope and dynamics of violence against women in Guatemala and how it is represented in the print media. Using nearly two thousand Guatemalan newspaper reports covering murders and assaults on women, this book contextualizes violence against women within the history of violence in Guatemala; gender ideologies and patriarchal social structures; and the contemporary demands of the women’s movement for social and legislative change. It shows that while some newspapers cover violence against women with investigative reports and editorials that use feminist analysis and language, these are overshadowed by the large number of individual reports that reproduce narratives of terror and conceal the gendered nature of violence against women by suggesting that “delinquents,” “gangs,” “unknown men,” and inexplicably violent husbands are the main culprits, while simultaneously upholding dichotomous gendered narratives of “good” and “bad” wives and daughters.

Download or read book Global Coloniality of Power in Guatemala written by Egla Martínez Salazar and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2012-07-20 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this engaged critique of the geopolitics of knowledge, Egla Martínez Salazar examines the genocide and other forms of state terror such as racialized feminicide and the attack on Maya childhood, which occurred in Guatemala of the 1980s and '90s with the full support of Western colonial powers. Drawing on a careful analysis of recently declassified state documents, thematic life histories, and compelling interviews with Maya and Mestizo women and men survivors, Martinez Salazar shows how people resisting oppression were converted into the politically abject. At the center of her book is an examination of how coloniality survives colonialism—a crucial point for understanding how contemporary hegemonic practices and ideologies such as equality, democracy, human rights, peace, and citizenship are deeply contested terrains, for they create nominal equality from practical social inequality. While many in the global North continue to enjoy the benefits of this domination, millions, if not billions, in both the South and North have been persecuted, controlled, and exterminated during their struggles for a more just world.

Download or read book The Routledge International Handbook on Femicide and Feminicide written by Myrna Dawson and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores in depth femicide and feminicide, bringing together our current knowledge on this phenomenon and its prevention. No country is free from femicide/feminicide, which represents the tip of the iceberg in male violence against women and girls. Therefore, it is crucial and timely to better understand how states and their citizens are experiencing and responding to femicide/feminicide globally. Through the work of internationally recognised feminist and grassroots activists, researchers, and academics from around the world, this handbook offers the first in-depth, global examination of the growing social movement to address femicide and feminicide. It includes the current state of knowledge and the prevalence of femicide/feminicide and its characteristics across countries and world regions, as well as the social and legal responses to these killings. The contributions contained here look at the accomplishments of the past four decades, ongoing challenges, and current and future priorities to identify where we need to go from here to prevent femicide/feminicide specifically and male violence against women and girls overall. This transnational, multidisciplinary, cross-sectoral handbook will contribute to research, policy, and practice globally at a time when it is needed the most. It brings a visible, global focus to the growing concern about femicide/feminicide, underscoring the importance of adopting a human rights framework in working towards its prevention, in an increasingly unstable global world for women and girls.

Download or read book Contra la violencia de g nero written by Francesca Sironi and published by Laberinto. This book was released on 2022-02-17 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Por qué publicar un libro sobre la violencia de género? ¿No se habla ya suficiente del tema? ¿No se han escrito miles de páginas al respecto? La respuesta es no. El conjunto de modelos tóxicos que posibilita y normaliza los abusos contra las mujeres está muy arraigado en nuestra sociedad. Contra la violencia de género pretende trazar un mapa para reconocer las injusticias estructurales que conforman el marco de viabilidad de la violencia. Se trata de un libro concebido para usarse como guía y ayudar a los jóvenes y a las familias a comprender cuantísimos aspectos de nuestra realidad se vinculan de forma intrínseca al problema de los feminicidios y el maltrato. El texto no comienza con la violencia de género en sí misma, sino que detalla los lugares donde los estereotipos sobre las mujeres representan una forma continua de discriminación. El sistema de poder arraigado en los tópicos que se exponen a lo largo del libro conforma una barrera que justifica o minimiza la violencia y aísla a la víctima. Solo si tenemos en cuenta estos puntos podremos cambiar de verdad las raíces culturales y estructurales de los abusos contra las mujeres.

Download or read book Violencia de g nero Reflexiones sobre la relaci n de pareja y la violencia contra las mujeres written by Miguel Pallarés and published by MARGE BOOKS. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La violencia contra las mujeres existe desde tiempos inmemoriales y tiene múltiples facetas e intereses escondidos. Es el resultado de una cultura patriarcal y machista que impone conductas de dominio, control y abuso de poder de los hombres sobre las mujeres. Aunque la legislación constituye una herramienta imprescindible para erradicar la violencia de género, no puede ser por sí sola la solución. Son necesarias acciones de sensibilización, formativas y preventivas que propicien los valores que contribuyen a evitar la violencia, especialmente en el ámbito de la pareja. Al abordar la cuestión de por qué los varones tienden a ser más violentos que las mujeres, Miguel Pallarés expone los principales trastornos mentales que pueden inducir a la violencia, analiza el perfil psicológico del hombre maltratador y muestra los patrones de conducta y ciclos en los que se desarrolla la violencia. El autor propone una terapia preventiva de la violencia de género en el varón basada en la superación del amor posesivo, la gestión de las emociones y la aceptación del cambio del papel social de las mujeres, entre otros aspectos. Este libro invita a reflexionar sobre cada una de las causas y facetas en que se manifiesta la violencia contra las mujeres. Esta reflexión ha de tener un amplio alcance social, inquietar la conciencia de cada persona y constituir una fuente de diálogo en el seno de la pareja, para demostrar así, una vez más, que la palabra y la razón son la mejor arma contra la violencia.
