  • Plural Visions on Gender Inequality Some Faces of Exclusion and Social Assymetrie
    Comunicación e Xénero ISBN-13 978-84-690-4140-6 NATALIA FERNÁNDEZ DÍAZ Plural visions on gender inequality Some faces of exclusion and social assymetrie Visións plurais sobre a desigualdade de xénero Algunhas caras da exclusión e asimetría social Resumo: This article is a reflection, more than an analysis, about the theoretical framework we have to use to focus on gender violence beyond a feminist point of view. At the end gender violence is a specific way of violence in general. Actually what we expose here is a quite simple theory consisting in the belief that a vio- lent world generates a generalized violence. Generalized violence is connected to a lack of solidarity, where we systematically experience situation of people not being involved with each other. And this is our starting point. After that we give some data to confirm this globalised and generalized violence against wo- men but also against all kind of victims of a society where human links have be- come feeble. At the same time we emphasize the fact that violence, including gender violence, is now more visible since in several occasions it exists when it exists in an image. The violence is not only important by itself but also because it is reproduced and consumed as a cultural product. Keywords: General violence, gender violence, solidarity, feminism, globaliza- tion, images, mass media. Abstract: Este artigo formula unha reflexión, máis do que unha análise, sobre o marco teórico que debemos utilizar para achegarnos á violencia de xénero, alén do ponto de vista do feminismo. A fin de contas a violencia de xénero non é máis do que unha forma específica da violencia en xeral.

  • Female Officers, Gender Violence and Human Capital: Evidence from All
    Female Officers, Gender Violence and Human Capital: Evidence from All-Women's Justice Centers in Peru∗ Guadalupe Kavanaughy Maria Micaela Sviatschiz Iva Trakox February 5, 2019 Abstract In many developing countries, access to justice remains unequal, especially for women. What are the implications of this inequality for gender-based violence, intra-household bargaining, and investment in children? This paper provides evidence from Peru on all-women's jus- tice centers (WJCs), specialized institutions that mostly employ female officers and provide police and legal services to reduce gender-based violence. Examining the gradual rollout of WJCs across districts/villages, we find that the opening of a center increases reporting of gender-specific crimes by 40% and reduces the incidence of gender-based violence measured by domestic violence, femicides and hospitalizations due to mental health by about 10%. We find, moreover, that a decrease in the exposure of women to violence has intergenerational effects: WJCs substantially increase human capital investments in children, raising enroll- ment, attendance, and test scores. These results are consistent with a bargaining model in which women's access to justice determines the threat point.

  • Strengthening Understanding of Femicide: Using Research to Galvanize Action and Accountability,” Washington, DC; April 14–16, 2008
    Acknowledgments This publication provides an overview of a conference on femicide convened jointly by PATH, the Inter-American Alliance for the Prevention of Gender-based Violence (InterCambios), the Medical Research Council of South Africa (MRC), and the World Health Organization (WHO) in Washington, DC, April 14–16, 2008. The conference brought together activists, researchers, and forensic professionals from 13 countries, with the aim of identifying common ground for strengthening research and galvanizing global action to prevent femicide and end the impunity so often granted to perpetrators. We are extremely grateful for their participation and willingness to share their experiences with femicide research and activism in this forum. (The meeting agenda can be found in Annex A, and the list of participants in Annex B.) Monique Widyono (PATH) developed the framework, background paper, and matrix of femicide studies for the conference, and was primarily responsible for its organization. Naeema Abrahams and Shanaaz Mathews (both of MRC), Mary Ellsberg (formerly of PATH), and Margarita Quintanilla and Yamileth Molina (both of PATH/InterCambios) provided invaluable guidance in shaping the framework and background paper and co- facilitating discussions during the technical working group sessions. InterCambios was also responsible for a preliminary matrix of studies in Latin America, which formed the basis of the final matrix. Claudia Garcia- Moreno (WHO) and Jacquelyn Campbell (Johns Hopkins University School of Nursing) provided additional guidance on the framework and background paper. An opening panel discussion for the meeting was co-sponsored by the Interagency Gender Working Group (IGWG) of the US Agency for International Development. The presentations are available at www.

  • Femicide Media Coverage and Violence Reporting Behavior
    Universidad de San Andrés Departamento de Economía Maestría en Economía Femicide media coverage and violence reporting behavior Carla María SREBOT ROEDER 42.976.515 Mentor: Martin A. ROSSI Lima, Perú 5 de julio, 2021 Tesis de Maestría en Economía de Carla María SREBOT ROEDER “El impacto de la cobertura mediática de los femicidios sobre los reportes de violencia” Resumen Este artículo analiza el efecto de la cobertura mediática de los femicidios sobre el comportamiento de denuncia de las mujeres víctimas de violencia. Argumento que la probabilidad de denunciar al agresor depende de si la víctima reside en una provincia que recibe cobertura mediática sobre femicidios. El análisis empírico utiliza los informes de violencia registrados por los Centros de Emergencia Mujer (CEM) en Perú y una base de datos única que incluye la fecha exacta de los femicidios y su publicación en los medios de comunicación entre 2017 y 2018. Aprovecho la variación espacial de la cobertura mediática, así como la variabilidad en las fechas de publi- cación de los femicidios para medir el impacto sobre la cantidad de denuncias de violencia. Los resultados indican un efecto significativo de las noticias de femicidios sobre el comportamiento de denuncia. En particular, la publicación de al menos un femicidio en los medios aumenta el número de denuncias de violencia física en un 11,5% sobre la media muestral. La dinámica de la relación entre la cobertura mediática de los femicidios y el número de reportes de violencia muestra que la divulgación de femicidios en los medios aumenta los reportes en la misma semana de su publicación, pero no tiene ningún efecto en las semanas siguientes.
