La Persona Civil y los Legados Esencialistas en la Corte Penal Internacional
Barra lateral del artículo
Contenido principal del artículo
El estatus de civil es fundamental en el derecho penal internacional, puesto que son las víctimas por excelencia en los crímenes de lesa humanidad y en los de guerra. Sin embargo, el concepto se originó en el derecho de la guerra donde la idea del civil se construyó en torno a ciertas características que se le adscriben como esenciales. Este concepto y sus esencialismos han sido trasladados al campo del derecho penal internacional. Empleando una metodología feminista, este artículo busca mostrar esta construcción del civil como débil, pasivo, sumiso y femenino y cómo se manifiesta y naturaliza en la práctica de la Corte Penal Internacional (cpi). Se argumenta que esos esencialismos impiden una justicia de género a la vez que dan lugar a la impunidad al no representar correctamente las experiencias de las víctimas y silenciar ciertos crímenes.
