ROMERO, Guillermo  and  PATES, Giuliana. Decontextualization, espectacularización and machismo in media narratives about violence against women in Argentina. Is visibility enough?. anagramas rumbos sentidos comun. [online]. 2017, vol.16, n.31, pp.67-89. ISSN 1692-2522.  https://doi.org/10.22395/angr.v16n31a2.

This work offers an analysis from a gender perspective of the ways in which violence against women is represented in a limited set of graphic media of the Argentine republic. In this sense, we ask ourselves: what facts are named as violence? How are they interpreted? How are the intervening subjects characterized? What narrative resources are used? Which are the authorized voices, statistical data, and programmatic agendas embodied in these stories? What intervening elements in the problem are hidden, ignored or overlapping? And at the same time, is it possible to notice cracks, dissensions, tensions between the different journalistic articles surveyed? These are the main questions that we will try to retrace throughout these pages, trying to place them in their national legal and socio-political context, in order to contribute to the imagination of public policies and social practices aimed at achieving gender equality.

Keywords : speculation; machismo; media narratives; gender; Argentina; public policies.
