Resumen
Objective: The objective was to analyze violence against women and the proliferation of the crime of femicide during the COVID-19 pandemic from the perspective of lawyers in the judicial district of Lima Norte, 2020. Method: In this sense, the basic type was used, under the qualitative paradigm. And it responds to the non-experimental design by case study. The research technique implemented was that of observation and interview structure, with the participation of expert lawyers in cases of violence and femicide according to the Peruvian Criminal Law Code. Results: It was found that the COVID-19 pandemic has brought serious consequences of various kinds for society. In particular, there has been an increase in violence and the crime of femicide against women. As a result, confinement has caused many women to live with their aggressor. As a result, there have been more reports of physical and psychological violence and in some cases even the death of the woman, thus constituting the crime of femicide. Conclusion: Therefore, during the pandemic, femicide and violence against women has increased. And although there are special laws that regulate this type of crime and the penalties are severe for the femicide, it cannot be eradicated or controlled. The problem has to do with the social dimension such as machismo, jealousy of partners, mental illness, inadequate education of citizens, alcohol consumption, etc. And because most women in the country have overload of responsibility with the children, do not have job opportunities and are not educated to support themselves. © 2022, Centro Universitario Curitiba - UNICURITIBA.
