GENDER, RACE AND TERRITORY IN THE ANALYSIS OF FEMINICIDES

Abstract

The proposal presents partial data from an ongoing study investigating feminicides based on spatialization in the Development Territories (TDs) of Piauí, covering the period between 2015 and 2020 – corresponding to the first five years of Law 13.104/2015, which created the qualifier in the Brazilian Penal Code. The choice of territorial scope was made considering that the state of Piauí develops its policies based on the division into 12 TDs, which articulate the 224 municipalities. In this paper, based on the articulation between gender, race and territory, the text discusses the particularities of feminicides in the state, observing the profiles of murdered women according to the official records of the Secretariat of Public Security (SSP/PI), considering the bodies in the territories from an intersectional perspective and the body-territory relationship.
