Abstract

This paper centres on the conceptualization of a social phenomenon of homicide against women, namely “femicide”, whichhas been announced by the Ministry of Justice with the growth rate of 1,400 percent in seven years. It focuses on the debatesregarding the meaning and the content of the concept “femicide”. Doing this, the paper aims at pointing out the fact that thedominant classical approaches of the official institutions which are in charge of femicide cases are problematic as they do notconsider the fact that femicides often occur within household. Deriving from Rosemary Gartner and Bill McCarthy’s work (1991)on the issue, the paper examines and criticizes the classical perspectives which shape the approaches assumed by officialinstitutions and the public in general.

Özet

Bu çalışma, Adalet Bakanlığı’nın “yedi yılda yüzde 1,400 artış oranı” ile ilan ettiği hızlı yükselişin işaret ettiği bir toplumsalolgunun kavramlaştırılmasına, “kadın cinayetleri”nin ad, anlam ve içeriğine dair tartışmalara odaklanmaktadır. Bunu yaparkençalışma, bu cinayetleri önlemekle görevli kurumlara hakim olan, kadınlara yönelik şiddetin en çok hane içinden geldiği ya daherhangi bir mekan ve zaman aralığı tanımaksızın gerçekleşmekte olduğu gerçeğinden uzak olan sorunlu klasik yaklaşımlarıeleştirmekte ve bu bağlamda, ilgili kurumların çözüm önerilerinin, cinayetleri önlemede etkisiz kalacağına işaret etmeyiamaçlamaktadır. Çalışmada kadın cinayetlerine yönelik klasik yaklaşımlar Rosemary Gartner ve Bill McCarthy’nin (1991) ilgilimakalelerinin ve konu üzerine yapılmış araştırmaların ışığında eleştirmektedir.
