Resumen
Descripción
El interés de este trabajo es mostrar
la tensión existente entre ciertas
prácticas estatales que ejercen
violencia contra las mujeres y las
normativas que protegen a las mujeres
de todas las formas de violencia
y discriminación que deben ser
aplicadas por esas mismas instancias
estatales. Para tal fin, se analizan
cuatro situaciones en las que diversos
agentes estatales ejercieron violencia
institucional hacia niñas de entre 9
y 12 años. La elección de trabajar
con situaciones que afectaron a niñas
responde, fundamentalmente, a que
el Estado debe tomar medidas de
especial protección por la condición
de infantes. El análisis de tal
accionar busca visibilizar lo que la
propia actuación estatal invisibiliza
mostrando la responsabilidad del
Estado en la producción de violencia
cuando su obligación es eliminarla.
Para esto se hará referencia a las
normativas vigentes que delimitan
el marco de legalidad y la ética de
nuestras prácticas, haciendo hincapié
en la relevancia de los instrumentos de
derechos humanos. Para comprender
la naturalización de ciertas formas
de violencia instalada en las
prácticas y discursos institucionales,
se analizarán brevemente algunas
maneras en las que el conocimiento
filosófico ha sostenido la construcción
de las identidades de género y la
desigualdad que le es propia.
The interest of this work is to show the tension between certain state practices that resort to violence against women and regulations that protect women from all forms of violence and discrimination that must be implemented by these state agencies. To that end, four situations in which state agents exerted different institutional violence towards girls between 9 and 12 years are analyzed in this work. Choosing to work with cases that affected girls responds mainly to the State taking special protection measures because of their infant condition. The analysis of such action intends to make visible the invisible government action itself, showing the state’s responsibility in the production of violence when its obligation is to eliminate it. Therefore, current regulations that define the framework of legality and ethics of our practices will be referred to in this paper, emphasizing the relevance of human rights instruments. To understand the naturalization of certain forms of violence mounted in institutional practices and discourses, some ways in which philosophical knowledge has supported the construction of gender identities and its own inequality will be briefly discussed.
