Violence against women in Guatemala : ウィキペディア英語版 | Violence against women in Guatemala
Violence against women in Guatemala reached severe levels during the long-running Guatemalan Civil War (1960-1996), and the continuing impact of that conflict has contributed to the present high levels of violence against women in that nation. During the armed conflict rape was used as a weapon of war.〔http://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-21053075〕 ==Femicide== Femicide in Guatemala is an extremely serious problem. According to a 2012 report by the Small Arms Survey, Guatemala has the third highest rate of femicide in the world, with only El Salvador and Jamaica having higher rates.〔http://www.trust.org/slideshow/?id=59ccc3c0-c719-467e-bf0b-622739b34ef4〕 According to official figures, 560 women were murdered in the country in 2012, 631 in 2011 and 695 in 2010. However the exact number is not known, and murders rarely result in any conviction, and often are not properly investigated; less than 4 percent of all homicide cases result in conviction for the perpetrators.〔http://www.amnesty.org/en/news/time-end-inaction-over-killings-women-guatemala-2013-01-17〕〔http://www.amnesty.org/en/news/guatemala-s-war-women-2013-01-21〕 Perpetrators are confident they will get away with murder, in part because of the "machismo" culture in Latin America. This culture allows women to be treated as objects rather than humans; equality and basic rights granted to men are not even in question for women. Rape culture and victim blaming are the tactics that go along with machismo, and both men and women largely agree with the misogynistic tendencies that have survived for so long.
