A crime of one’s own. Critical analysis of the foundations of the law of femicide

A pesar de lo enunciado en los fundamentos de la creación del delito de femicidio, el objeto jurídico que se protege no es la víctima llamada "mujer", sino una institución que la absorbe y la supera, a saber, la familia, particularmente aquello que se llama "el orden de las familias". La pretensión de este trabajo consiste en revelar cuáles son las implicancias políticas y éticas, desde una perspectiva crítica, de la creación del delito especial de femicidio, considerando principalmente los argumentos del feminismo y del posfeminismo. Despite the stated rationale for creating the crime of femicide, the legally protected is not the victim called "woman", but an institution that absorbs her and goes beyond, namely the family, particularly that which is called "the family order". The aim of this work is to reveal what they are, from a critical perspective, political and ethical implications of the creation of the special offense of femicide, mainly considering the arguments of feminism and post-feminism.
