El escrache: un llamado a seguir el precepto de la justicia: un análisis del concepto y movimiento feminista del escrache desde la violencia divina de Walter Benjamín

Walter Benjamin in his text On a Critique of Violence (1921) conceptualizes justice as "divine violence", since it is a mandate that neither authorizes nor blames, but only calls us to responsibility. This concept of divine violence is non-mediate, it does not have an instrumental relationship with an end, but rather, one that is neither legitimate nor illegitimate in relation to an end, in this case with the law. This notion of divine violence is related to a contemporary feminist action: the escrache. This implies an update, a operationalization of a philosophical concept to illuminate the present. This mechanism used by feminist collectives and networks constitutes manages to illustrate the way in which actions of the struggles that belong to the tradition of the oppressed (in this case women) have adopted mechanisms that distance themselves from the same system of law that is supposed to it should help them to suppress the repression. However, this action would seem to be outside the law, as it exceeds it and distances itself from it, creating a distance from the law itself.
