Resumen

A pesar de enfatizar las semejanzas entre los feminicidios de Ciudad Juárez y las desapariciones y asesinatos de mujeres y niñas indígenas en Canadá (MMIWG por sus siglas en inglés), las activistas y académicas indígenas no utilizan el concepto de feminicidio para enmarcar este tipo de violencia. Las académicas usan el término de genocidio y las activistas transnacionales la enmarcan como discriminación interseccional y una violación a los derechos humanos. Ambas perspectivas se enfocan en la colonización como eje central.

Biografía del autor/a

Paulina García-Del Moral, Universidade de Guelph

Doctora en Sociología por la Universidad de Toronto, Canadá. Su investigación de examina la intersección de la ley, el género y el poder en los procesos transnacionales de búsqueda de justicia en México y Canadá. García trabaja en tres áreas empíricas principales: el impacto del activismo feminista transnacional en las respuestas estatales al asesinato de mujeres; los viajes transnacionales y la institucionalización legal de los conocimientos feministas; y cómo las decisiones de las instituciones supranacionales de derechos humanos sobre las políticas de los estados sobre violencia de género y derechos reproductivos configuran las políticas nacionales de pertenencia.
