Resumen
LASSALLE, Martina. Patriarchal values and criminal justice. On the differential punishment of murder against sons and daughters. Perf. latinoam. [online]. 2023, vol.31, n.61, 00004. Epub 10-Jun-2024. ISSN 0188-7653. https://doi.org/10.18504/pl3161-004-2023.
This article seeks to show the way in which the criminal justice reproduces heteropatriarchal values through the differential penalization of murders committed by fathers and mothers against their children. We will analyse the case of the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires and focus on the way in which these penal practices are permeated and informed by the hegemonic myth women-mother and by the universe of social imaginary significations around maternity that it organizes. We propose a qualitative approach that includes analyses of trial records as well as of interviews done to judges and prosecutors.
