This paper sets out to discover how the Inter-American Court of Hu-man Rights (IACHR) interprets gender violence in its jurisprudence, and whetherthis interpretation is consistent with an evolving interpretation of human rightsand current discussions about gender violence. The article analyzes the Case of“González and others vs. Mexico” and the rationale decidendi of the case, usingas a theoretical basis previous publications. We conclude that the IACHR currentin its analysis of gender violence, gave special emphasis to crimes characterizedas feminicide.
