- Title
Feminicide in Mexico: An approach through academic, activist and artistic work.
- Authors
Castañeda Salgado, Martha Patricia
- Abstract
In recent decades, the incidence of feminicidio has been interwoven with increasing social and structural violence in Mexico, which has resulted in the need to stress its specificity to prevent the violent murders of women going unpunished. Feminicidio has become a topic of academic, political, social and cultural reflection not only due to its alarming prevalence in the country, but also because of the complexity of its characteristics. This article aims to show some relevant academic, activist and artistic approaches within the Mexican context.
