Descrizione di una battaglia. Attori e strategie della prova in un processo per femminicidio
2022
Spostando l’attenzione dalla dimensione della verità a quella della veridizione e analizzando la sentenza come una battaglia dialettica che ridefinisce i confini delle identità degli attori coinvolti, il libro propone l’esame di un caso di femminicidio andato in giudizio nel dicembre del 2015. È l’omicidio di una donna che viene insolitamente definito dai giudici come un femminicidio e il cui movente è rinvenuto nel desiderio di possesso dell’omicida nei confronti della vittima. Un caso del quale la cronaca si è poco occupata, anche per il basso livello socio-economico e culturale di vittima e assassino. A renderne ancor più ricca la narrazione, il fatto che di esso (e della giovane vittima…
Androcentrismo en la asistencia: un estudio exploratorio sobre los sesgos en la atención a pacientes con fibromialgia
2011
El artículo trata de desvelar los condicionantes de género en la asistencia médica. Para ello se ha realizado un estudio sobre la fibromialgia, una dolencia muy desconocida, que mayoritariamente afecta a las mujeres, por lo que podría constituir un caso paradigmático de la construcción de género y de los sesgos androcéntricos en la ciencia médica. Los resultados muestran que en los patrones de socialización diferenciales, en los modelos de masculinidad y feminidad y en el reparto de roles sexuales se puede encontrar la respuesta a algunas de las diferencias y desigualdades que surgen en atención médica. The article attempts to reveal gender-based determining factors in medical care. For thi…

Sévices maritaux et divorce (XIII - XVIII siècle)
2022
La violence exercée sur autrui dans le but de dresser, d’éduquer, de corriger ou de punir englobe des pratiques très anciennes (coups, fouet, privations, enfermement) et d’autres plus caractéristiques d’une époque, comme le bonnet d’âne dans l’école de la Troisième République. Certaines, comme la gifle et la fessée, semblent si banales qu’on ne les perçoit pas d’emblée comme des objets d’histoire. Jusqu’à ces dernières décennies, cette violence infligée dans le cadre de la maisonnée, distincte et complémentaire de la violence de l’État, n’était contestée que lorsqu’elle était manifestement excessive. Le « droit de correction » était considéré comme un pilier de l’ordre social, exprimant l’a…

This study therefore aimed at assessing the extent to which access to loans by women can lead to a change…
