摘要
We will understand femicide from the perspective of Marcela Lagarde, from the conceptual elements of misogyny -hatred towards women- and state impunity -gender nepolitical-, which responds to the Latin American reality. On the other hand, Information and Communication Technologies have served as tools to make femicides visible, which has generated a whole form of political cyberactivism, which we will understand as the use of ICTs as a strategy for the political organization of collective action. The essay analyzes the social movement "Ni una menos" in Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, El Salvador and Mexico. This selection of countries was made, firstly, based on the high rates of femicides according to the Observatory of Gender Equality of ECLAC; secondly, by the bibliographic information from primary and secondary sources of the work done from the movement in each of the countries and, thirdly, by the incidence of the formation of the collective in social networks as a tactical means for the call for mobilization.
