Abstract | Femicide is defined as “the killing of females by males, because they are females” (Russell & Harmes, Femicide in global perspective. Teachers College Press, 2001). This definition was posed to highlight the role of gender inequality and the domination of men over women as a key characteristic in femicide (Widyono, Strengthening understanding of femicide: Using research to galvanize action and accountability. PATH, Seattle, WA, 2008). Russell and Harmes’s (Femicide in global perspective. Teachers College Press, 2001) definition also extends to female children and infants as victims of femicide. However, children can be victims of femicide in several ways, regardless of gender. This chapter seeks to examine the ways in which children can be victimised directly and indirectly, through femicide. Through the lens of developmental victimology, and considering cumulative ecological transactional models of maltreatment and victimisation, the authors will interrogate the victimisation of children through femicide. The chapter will first discuss intersectionality and the interrelationship between gender, race, and class, to draw out themes of child femicide and gendered child abuse. The authors will then explore more specific victimisations, including female infanticide and foeticide, the interrelationship between intimate partner violence, femicide and child homicide, and honour killings of adolescent girls. The chapter will also explore the trajectories of childhood victimisation to femicide in adulthood, considering experiences of cumulative harm, poly-victimisation and re-victimisation. Finally, the chapter will examine the impact of femicide on children as living victims. |
