Abstract

Gender-based violence (GBV) is an issue that has received attention at the international level. In Mexico, almost 50% of women have reported being victims of violence perpetrated by their partner or ex-partner to the point of their death. The type of GBV that has experienced a significant increase is femicide or the killing of women just because of gender. The number of cases of femicide in Mexico has averaged 1.500 cases annually since 1985. In the period 1993-2005, there were at least 370 victims femicide that have been identified. This causes Mexico to become a country that is considered unsafe for women, especially with a high level of impunity in Mexico, where 93% of crimes are not reported nor investigated, including femicide. The machismo culture that is very attached to social life in Mexico emphasizes how domination is owned by men over women. The Spotlight Initiative program in Mexico is one of the government's efforts aimed at strengthening, complementing, and supporting existing gender-related initiatives in Mexico, particularly for femicide and violence against women. With 2 phases, the first phase in 2019-2021 and the second phase in 2021-2022, the Spotlight Initiative program is expected to have a positive impact on women in Mexico and can also eliminate acts of violence against women in various forms. However, the program has no significant effect on the level of femicide that occurs in Mexico. The strong influence of machismo culture has become a strong factor in its occurrence femicide in Mexico.

Abstract

This research aims to examine Gangubai’s role as a surrogate mother in the brothel of Kamathipura. A surrogate mother is crucial in the prostitution area since the sex workers do not have any access to law, education, or health facilities. They are even threatened with being homeless. Thus, Gangu’s emergence as the leader in the brothel saves the prostitutes there. She is chosen by her friends in the brothel as the one who can protect their lives. Gangu is a well-educated girl from a prominent family in Kathiawar. Her father is a well-known lawyer. Therefore, she is the one who advocates for women who work in the prostitution area in Kamathipura. Like her, women who are trapped as sex workers are those who are deceived by the ones they love. Gangu turns out to be a sex worker after her boyfriend, Ramnik, manipulated her to be a film star. This research is a qualitative one that explores the analysis through textual critical description. This research employs the feminist-rational choice approach that emphasizes female liberation on gender, strategy, institutions, power, and change. To get the findings, this research focuses on two themes that are the idea of a surrogate mother in the brothel and how the surrogate mother implements her power to protect her workers in her place.

Abstract

This research delves into feminist themes within the novel "I'm not the Perfect Mexican Daughter," focusing on the depiction of women through the perspectives of two key female characters. Employing feminist literary analysis, the study investigates how Chicana women are represented in a society entrenched in patriarchal norms. Drawing from Garcia’s Chicana feminist and Tong’s feminist feminist theories, it argues that women occupy subordinate positions due to entrenched male dominance. Despite advancements in the public sphere, Chicano women are still expected to adhere to traditional family roles, being judged primarily on physical appearance. Men are portrayed as dominant figures, wielding power in economic and social realms. Through the lives of the main characters, the novel highlights the challenges and contradictions faced by Chicana women amidst the women's movement. It presents an idealized image of womanhood emblematic of Chicana experiences in the United States, exploring Julia's defiance of gender norms, Olga's complex negotiation between conformity and rebellion, and Ama's struggle with societal expectations.
