Análisis comparativo entre el término feminicidio y femicidio, sus diferencias e implicaciones dentro de la construcción del discurso feminista internacional

Abstract

This project deals with the comparative analysis between the term feminicide and femicide,their differences and implications within the construction of international feminist discourse. In which, a preliminary argument is made about the patriarchal system, where it has been confirmed that violence against women arises from the power and control that the patriarchal system grants to men, strengthening inequality between both sexes, with the objective of achieving and maintain the submission, inferiority and obedience of women. In the second chapter, the distinction is made between femicide and feminicide, specifying that femicide is defined as the homicide committed by a man against a woman, driven by hatred, contempt, personal satisfaction or simply by the fact of being women; while, feminicide includes all forms of violence directed towards women that are permitted or tolerated by the State, which specifically focus on the impunity linked to these crimes. Finally, in the last chapter the international feminist discourse is established, understanding that there are various activists from feminist movements such as Nelly Richard, Rita Laura Segato, Mary Wollstonecraft, Margarita Pisano, among others, who have defended their rights and have fought for their recognition, respect and equal integration in society.
