This book explores narratives and practices around gender and criminal justice, with a focus on women in Latin America. The chapters are written by academics, policy-making institutions, women with lived experience and activist actors in Latin America. They provide a distinctive analysis of gender and criminal justice in the region, along with the tensions between victimization and agency in women's paths of criminalization. This book looks at women's resistance and responses to States' processes of gender stereotyping and punishment. Ultimately, it showcases women's collective capacity to shape the security agenda.
