Sumario:Based on Marcela Lagarde’s proposal to approach feminicide as a phenomenon closely linked to the geopolitical territory where it occurs, as a set of murders that need to be reviewed as such and not in isolation, as well as feminicides being preceded by a continuum of violence, in this article some elements are placed in order to socially characterize the space of deployment of gender-based violence against women and girls, and its most radical expression, feminicide, in Yucatán. This, problematizing and questioning a mechanical explanation that has correlated the presence of these phenomena only with contexts of high insecurity or criminality.
