The course will focus on the analysis of femicide and femicide as a phenomenon directly linked to patriarchy, the colonial construction of gender and class inequalities through Western science, as well as the role of the state in shaping, legitimizing and reinforcing these phenomena, through a hegemonic masculinity and power. Through critical approaches and fundamental theoretical texts, we will examine how the state has used science, legal framework and political strategy to establish and manage violence against women and femininity, reinforcing patriarchal, class and colonial structures. We will analyze how the historical development of the concept of \u00abfeminicide\u00bb reflects the state\u2019s ongoing effort to control \u00abfeminine\u00bb race, gender, knowledge and science, as well as the establishment of a \u00abThird\u00bb world. We will explore how policies, legal regulations and practices of repression, such as patriarchal family law laws, demographic \u00abproblem\u00bb measures, policing and \u00abmoral control\u00bb campaigns against \u00abcommon\u00bb femininity or sex work, have shaped the social field in which violence against women and femininity is legitimised or concealed. Finally, we will discuss how active forms of collective resistance and social claim, as well as theories such as abolitionist feminism, promote the abolition of all forms of oppression and violence, focusing on the dismantling of the radical structures that enable them.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-1809","course","type-course","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/soc.aegean.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/course\/1809","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/soc.aegean.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/course"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/soc.aegean.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/course"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/soc.aegean.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1809"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
