MONARREZ FRAGOSO, Julia. Systemic Sexual Feminicide: A constant historical impunity in Ciudad Juárez, Victims and Perpetrators. E&c [online]. 2019, vol.1, n.8, pp.85-110. ISSN 2477-9245.  https://doi.org/10.37228/estado_comunes.v1.n8.2019.99.

The aim of this article is to understand the durability of systemic sexual feminicide in Ciudad Juárez (Mexico), from 1993 to 2018, period in which it is practically no legal consequences for the perpetrators of 154 victims. I start the essay, underlining the power feminicide has to dismantle, within the patriarchal logic, the condition of women as killable subjects. I make a theoretical assembly between the social hermeneutics of suffering; the creation of negative spaces of civilization and the resistances of relatives of victims, to the continuous historical impunity of feminicide. I use a quantitative and qualitative methodology. First, the Feminicide database, which contains the register of victims and offenders. With these data, it is possible to reveal the brutal transmission of cruelty. Second, the methodology of the oppressed shows strategies of resistance those relatives of victims maintain to access justice. I emphasize the role that material and political structures play against women lives, even though transnational justice has protected them. I suggest that confining the analysis of feminicide to the victim perpetrator relationship limits our understanding of other systemic structures that sustain feminicide.
