Abstract
El presente artículo analiza el fenómeno de las llamadas “rastreadoras”, grupos de familias tanto mexicanas como centroamericanas, que de forma cada vez más organizada buscan a sus familiares desaparecidos en territorio mexicano, víctimas de traficantes de personas, cárteles de la droga o crimen organizado en general, en ocasiones coludidos con miembros de las propias autoridades del país. Para abordar este fenómeno que involucra principalmente a mujeres (madres, hermanas e hijas de los desaparecidos), se recurre a las teorías y supuestos feministas de las Relaciones Internacionales y los Estudios de Seguridad, que amplían el concepto mismo de seguridad para incluir a las mujeres como actores relevantes en la búsqueda de justicia y construcción de la paz en escenarios de violencia nacional y transnacional.
This article analyzes the phenomenon of the so-called ‘rastreadoras’ (tracker women) that are families, both Mexican and Central American, who in an increasingly organized manner search for their missing relatives in Mexican territory, as victims of human traffickers, drug cartels or organized crime in general, sometimes in collusion with members of the country's own authorities. To address this phenomenon, which mainly involves women (mothers, sisters and daughters of the disappeared), it resorts to feminist theories and assumptions of International Relations and Security Studies, which broaden the very concept of security to include women as relevant actors in the search for justice and peace building in scenarios of national and transnational violence
