This paper reviews peripheral feminism reflections upon the need to move beyond classic gender violence studies’ epistemological assumptions. Gender-based-analysis (GBA) conceptualization represented a considerable advance in recognising patriarchy as a structural system of domination and its relevance in studying processes of violence against women. Nonetheless this approach exhibit limitations as we try to investigate further beyond simple analytical dichotomies so often deployed when discussing gender violence. Consequently we highlight the importance of relating gender to other Intersectional inequality axis such as social class, age, sexual identities different from the heteronormativity, functional diversity, ethnic group/race, or citizenship. An encompassing analytical perspective allows for a multidimensional framework more suitable for the study of such a complex phenomenon as is violence against women. In this manner we are able to visualize and analyse experiences that are usually marginalised and excluded from hegemonic definitions of gender violence.
Este trabajo revisa las reflexiones de los feminismos periféricos en torno a la necesidad de avanzar sobre los presupuestos epistemológicos de los estudios de “violencia de género”. Si bien la conceptualización realizada desde los gender-based analysis (GBA) ha significado un gran avance para el reconocimiento del patriarcado como sistema de dominación estructural dentro de los procesos de la violencia contra las mujeres, este enfoque se muestra limitado frente a la superación de dicotomías analíticas que se presentan a menudo en el estudio de la violencia de género. Por ello, se propone la integración interseccional del género con otros ejes de desigualdad, como clase social, edad, identidades sexuales (distintas de la heteronormatividad), diversidad funcional, raza/etnia o ciudadanía. Esta ampliación analítica proporciona la posibilidad de un enfoque multidimensional más acorde con la complejidad del problema, contribuyendo a la visibilización y análisis de las experiencias marginalizadas y excluidas de las definiciones hegemónicas sobre la violencia de género.
