BRISENO-MAAS, María Leticia  y  BAUTISTA-MARTINEZ, Eduardo. Violence against Women in Oaxaca. In the Ways of Inequality and Poverty. LiminaR [online]. 2016, vol.14, n.2, pp.15-27. ISSN 2007-8900.

The increase in manifestations of violence against women in Oaxaca and links between these expressions should be explained beyond immediate situations and in a perspective of intersectionality. Given the breadth of expressions of gender violence and the predominantly rural and indigenous constitution of the state of Oaxaca, this paper focuses on the nature of violence faced by indigenous women within their community, concerning land conflicts, the struggle for land tenure and the relative recent participation of women in positions of authority not traditional assumed by them.

Palabras llave : violence against women; inequality; poverty.
