El 23 de noviembre de 2015 se publicó la Ley 30364, Ley para Prevenir, Sancionar y Erradicar la Violencia contra las Mujeres e Integrantes del Grupo Familiar. Si bien la norma destacó por incorporar una serie de medidas principalmente orientadas a combatir la violencia contra la mujer, al parecer no presta el mismo grado de atención a las situaciones de violencia hacia niños/as, en concreto, aquellas que se producen en espacios no familiares. En el presente artículo, a partir de las carencias y omisiones que la normativa peruana presenta con respecto a la protección integral de niños/as contra la violencia en espacios no familiares, se propone algunas claves para elaborar un marco jurídico que aborde dicho asunto. Para ello, además de analizar la Ley 30364, se observan las regulaciones que existen en cuanto a los diferentes espacios ajenos a la familia donde pueden ocurrir actos...

This paper highlights the connections between representations of women with disabilities in mass media and the discrimination they face, in light of the State obligations derived from the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). The paper recognizes that this group faces intersectional forms of discrimination; because of this, the authors propose that a State obligation to prevent the perpetuation of stereotypes on gender and disability in mass media can be derived from a joint reading of CRPD and the Convention to Eliminate Discrimination Against Women. By analyzing representation in mass media, this paper finds that media outlets tend to convey false or protectionist stereotypes of women with disabilities. In consequence, the authors propose that responsible exercise of media-related professions should (i) reflect persons with disabilities’ demands for accessibil...

En el Derecho internacional de los derechos humanos, históricamente se han establecido diferencias entre los derechos económicos, sociales y culturales y los derechos civiles y políticos. Estas diferencias han sido justificadas con diversos argumentos, siendo el principal la supuesta onerosidad en la implementación de los derechos económicos, sociales y culturales que determinaría su carácter de obligación progresiva. Esta bifurcación se refleja tanto en la normativa adoptada, como en el establecimiento de mecanismos de judicialización. En la presente tesis se cuestiona la ficticia separación entre derechos económicos, sociales y culturales y derechos civiles y políticos, tomando como argumentos centrales una correcta interpretación del concepto de progresividad, así como la necesidad de dotar de efectividad a las tantas veces consagradas indivisibilidad e interdependencia...

The adoption and implementation of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities drastically changed the understanding of the rights of persons with disabilities. The right to legal capacity (or legal agency) of persons with disabilities stands out, among other issues needed for its implementation. The Convention recognizes that persons with disabilities can make decisions and their disability is not ground for denying legal capacity. This goes against what most Civil Codes state in our region. To guarantee said right, it is necessary that States recognize support for legal capacity that are guarded by safeguards. These will prevent abuse, undue influence and conflict of interest. This article presents the different debates that have occurred at the theoretical level regarding these new institutions. Article 12 forces us to rethink several legal terms such as the juridical ac...

El entendimiento de los derechos de las personas con discapacidad se ha visto modificado por la adopción e implementación de la Convención sobre los Derechos de las Personas con Discapacidad. Entre los cambios necesarios para su implementación, resalta el referido a la capacidad jurídica (o capacidad de ejercicio) de las personas con discapacidad. A contracorriente con lo que se registra en la mayor parte de Códigos Civiles de la región, la Convención reconoce que las personas con discapacidad sí pueden tomar decisiones y que su discapacidad no puede ser motivo para privarlos de ese derecho. Para garantizar esto, es necesario que los Estados reconozcan apoyos para la capacidad jurídica que sean vigilados por salvaguardias que eviten abusos, influencia indebida y conflictos de intereses. Este artículo presenta los diferentes debates que se han sucedido a nivel doctrinario con r...
