Femicide: for information that goes beyond media revictimisation

Abstract

Changing culture means changing the way we think, with an awareness and knowledge that allows us to trace stereotypes and roles hidden in the deep folds of society, and so deeply rooted in our way of being, that they are almost invisible. Stereotypes that are an integral part of our way of life, and that place men and women on levels of superiority and subordination based on sex, and without any other motivation, heavily conditioning human relationships through prejudice. A discrimination that is already a form of violence that regards women as an object to be conquered, possessed, controlled, and not a subject. Male violence against women is neither a new nor an Italian phenomenon. And if the problem is structural and cultural, the information and media narrative of this violence becomes one of the main factors for change. For these reasons, it is not enough to be “sensitive” to the subject but you have to know it, you have to be prepared, you have to study, and it is essential that training is valid for judges, law enforcement agencies, lawyers and lawyers, psychologists and psychologists, social workers, but also for journalists and journalists who want to deal with these issues. The media responsibility is particularly serious, because when information is consumed on the skin of human beings – such as women and girls who risk their own safety – everyone should take an examination of conscience asking: what could be the consequences if I am wrong or if I am superficial? Solving the cultural problem also through proper information, is the knot to be dissolved.
