Entre conceitos e legislações: análises e reflexões sobre feminicídio, mulheres negras e violação de direitos humanos

Abstract

In this dissertation there are several discussions on the femicide concept, as this has been interpreted in the theoretical field and that form was adopted in some legislations. For that reason, the gender and race intersectionality were made necessary for the accomplishment of gathering of statistical data of femicides in countries of Latin America that possess punitive legislation to the femicides. Based on the interdisciplinary, theoretical discussions show us the necessity of an interpretation of the femicide concept that take into consideration the broadness of this phenomenon. In this sense, the result of this gathering of statistical data, evidenced the implications of societies settled by the patriarchy and racism, when demonstrating that the deaths of black women victims of femicide are statistically ignored in the official documents of femicide of the countries. The absence of a racial division of the femicide victims proves a context of black women's dehumanization to the state institutions, what collaborates for their violation of human rights. The results achieved demonstrate the legislations that adopt the category femicide with a conceptual precision of the term are also crucial for the fair applicability of the concept and the transformation, together with the social mobilizations and theoretical productions, of the sceneries come from necropolitics with race and gender divisions.
