Is lethal violence invisible to the eyes of the offenders? Narratives from the Argentina and Chile.
Show summary
Homicide is among the most serious crimes and, consequently, it is punished with some of the longest prison sentences. The analysis of the narratives of perpetrators has shed some light on how offenders manage guilt, understand violence, and rationalize the event. This paper draws upon field data (narrative interviews and lifelines drawn by participants) from CRIMLA Project. By analyzing the life stories of an heterogeneous sample of homicide perpetrators in Argentina and Chile, this study shows that death and inflicted harm is downplayed in the reconstructions of most perpetrators, illustrating a tendency to invisibilize and ignore the victims themselves. Contrastingly, offenders justified and excused the harm caused to the victims’ relatives, evaluated the impact of their action on their own families and friends and, mainly, focused their stories on the self-provoked harm on their own lives as a consequence of being imprisoned. This narrative pattern reveals the ways in which these actors evaluate lethal violence, highlighting the impact on their social circle and downplay its effect on the victims. The outweigh of incarceration over violence is illustrated by the fact that in their lifelines prison is predominantly labeled as a turning-point, over the crime itself. This paper discusses how violence is rationalized, the possibility of redemption narratives, and the hegemonic stories which condition how killing is signified.

Male Perpetrators’ Accounts of Intimate Femicide: A Global Systematic Review.
Show summary
To prevent intimate femicide, the gender-based killing of a woman by a current or past intimate partner, an understanding of perpetrators is necessary. The purpose of this global systematic review was to synthesize the evidence on intimate femicide perpetration with a focus on the perspectives of male perpetrators. We searched ten databases using standardized search terms about femicide and perpetrators. The review had no limits on publication date, geography, study design, or discipline and included articles in English, Spanish and Portuguese. The search resulted in 4,273 unique records; the full text of 112 articles was reviewed. Data were extracted from 14 studies. All studies sampled incarcerated populations. Articles used varied terminology and were grounded in either gender and power, or psychological or social development theory. Most used qualitative approaches (n=12), primarily in-depth interviews (n=11). Methodological challenges included low and missing response rates; data collection challenges; and non-generalizable results by way of methodological approach. Common themes across studies included perpetrator biographical and predisposing factors, self-narratives, and sense-making. Perpetrators rationalized the femicide and deflected responsibility; viewed themselves as the victim while vilifying true victims; and adhered to strict gender norms. This review underscores the importance of and heretofore absences in work focusing on intimate femicide perpetrator’s perspectives across methodologies and disciplines, namely criminology and masculinity studies. Intimate femicide perpetrators are not merely bad actors, instead, they are a manifestation of global patriarchy who pose mortal threats to their female partners. As drivers of intimate femicide, lack of information about perpetrator motivations and rationalizations results in less effective policy and programmatic interventions to prevent dangerous behaviors and actions to save women’s lives.
