OSPINA, Marcela Amador. Questioning Structural Invisibility, Selective Visibility and Universalization of Rape of Indigenous Women in Colombia: Notes to Build a New Research Field. univ.humanist. [online]. 2017, n.84, pp.265-307. ISSN 0120-4807.  https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.uh84.iiev.

This paper develops a theoretical approach to the rape of women, in general, and of indigenous women, in particular. It presents a review of academic works on the subject, and a critical, informed analysis based on the questions and challenges of a research schedule that began in 2005 and has continued to grow in recent years with an extensive empirical research on the experiences of rape of nasa women in Northern Cauca. Nevertheless, it must be clarified that my intention is not present such fieldwork nor discuss its results, which have been published elsewhere (2016, 2017, in press). It begins by acknowledging the vast and prolific field of inquiry on “violence” in Colombia, while seeking to question it by proposing new research routes that have been silenced by the hegemonic views on the subject, whose approaches have overemphasized political violence as a research topic.

Palabras clave : violence; sexual abuse; indigenous women.
