This article explores the murder of women and girls, which we name it Femicide, among the Palestinian community living in Israel. Specifically, it analyzes how the dialectic interrelationship between informal and formal legal-social systems constructs the murders of Palestinian women. The data revealed that femicide is a crime empowered by the wider context of colonization and the increasing spatial segregation of Palestinian communities. The study confirms the need to move beyond simplistic "cultural" explanations of femicide, and pay closer attention to the ways in which the structure, politics and economy of death function in colonized spaces and contexts.
这篇文章探讨了生活在以色列的巴勒斯坦社区中针对妇女和女孩的谋杀行为，我们将其命名为女性杀害。具体来说，本文分析了非正式和正式法律-社会系统之间的辩证相互关系如何构建了对巴勒斯坦妇女的谋杀。研究数据表明，女性杀害是殖民化更广泛背景下以及巴勒斯坦社区日益加剧的空间隔离的产物。本研究证实，需要超越对女性杀害的简单“文化”解释，更加关注死亡在被殖民空间和背景中的结构、政治和经济运作方式。
