CARDONA ACUNA, Luz Ángel  y  ARTEAGA BOTELLO, Nelson. #Metoo, digital mobilization in Mexico: Support, criticism and opposition in the Civil Sphere. Espiral (Guadalaj.) [online]. 2021, vol.28, n.81, pp.187-224.  Epub 15-Nov-2021. ISSN 1665-0565.

The controversy in the Mexican media is analyzed for the alleged relationship of the #Metoo movement with the suicide of a musician accused of harassment. This controversy opened a debate on the relevance of the anonymous report of the harassment, its legal, social and personal implications, both for the victims and for the accused. Following the theoretical-methodological proposal of cultural sociology, a review was made of the opinion columns that dealt with the subject.The movement was interpreted in the media as: a) an expression of legitimate justice; b) a justified manifestation but contaminated by rancor and revenge; c) as an expression that sought from the beginning the digital lynching of alleged harassers. This dispute allows us to understand the challenges of feminist justice in cases of violence against women.

Palabras llave : feminist mobilization; Metoo; civil sphere; sexual harassment; justice.
