- Abstract: La escalada de homicidios violentos de mujeres cometidos por hombres en las dos últimas décadas en América Latina ha obligado a muchos países de la región a tipificar el crimen de homicidio de género como «feminicidio» (o «femicidio»). Su objetivo era concienciar y disminuir así el número de feminicidios cometidos cada año; sin embargo, aunque la tasa de feminicidio disminuyó en muchos países, volvió a aumentar en los años siguientes. En este estudio, se ha generado un conjunto de datos sobre la tasa de feminicidio entre 2000 y 2014 y se ofrece un análisis de los factores de influencia. Se constata que la criminalización (o tipificación) del feminicidio no es significativa para predecir la tasa de feminicidio; en cambio, niveles bajos del Estado de derecho y la falta de representación de la mujer en organismos de toma de decisiones, como los parlamentos nacionales, aparecen como los factores más relevantes para explicar la variación de las tendencias en feminicidios.

- Abstract: The escalating number of violent female homicides committed by men over the last two decades has compelled many Latin American countries to classify (typify) the crime of gender-based homicide as "feminicide" (or "femicide"). Their objective was to raise awareness and thereby decrease the number of feminicides committed per year. However, although the rate of feminicide fell in many countries, it rose again in subsequent years. In this study, a dataset was built on the rate of feminicide between 2000 and 2014, and an analysis is made of influencing factors. The criminalisation (typification) of feminicide is not found to be significant to predict the rate of feminicide. Instead, low levels of the rule of law and a lack of female representation in decision-making bodies such as national parliaments are found to be the most significant factors in explaining the variation in feminicide trends.
