GUADARRAMA SANCHEZ, Gloria Jovita  e  AGUILAR PINTO, Emma del Carmen. The various readings of the concept of gender-based political violence in Mexico (2010-2020). Convergencia [online]. 2021, vol.28, e14538.  Epub 06-Maio-2021. ISSN 2448-5799.  https://doi.org/10.29101/crcs.v28i0.14538.

Political violence by gender reasons constitutes a menace for the rights of women acting in the political sphere and has harmful effects in society. However, it is difficult to understand what should be considered political violence. The aim of this text is to examine different perspectives about the meaning of gender-based political violence. The discussion is supported on reviews of scholarly research, books and articles published in Mexico between 2010 and 2020, driven by an analysis of the central points of the concept. The core issues of this discussion contribute to understand the social construction and institutionalization of gender-based political violence, particularly in the Mexican academic and political spheres, and to highlight its relevance for democratic procedures.

Palavras-chave : gender-based political violence; gender; political culture; women rights; political participation.
