Abstract
La Guerra de Bosnia (1992-1995) es un conflicto paradigmático para el estudio de los crímenes contra la humanidad en conflictos bélicos, destacando entre ellos los abusos y violaciones sexuales que recibieron muchas mujeres durante la guerra. Como consecuencia del estallido del conflicto, se produjo un incremento de las tensiones entre distintas etnias y religiones que terminan desembocando en una auténtica limpieza étnica, conduciendo a la normalización de la violencia. Nuestro objeto de estudio se centra en el análisis de los horrores a los que tendrán que hacer frente las mujeres bosnias, especialmente las musulmanas, como la proliferación de campamentos destinados a violaciones y prostitución forzada. Las prácticas extremas de violencia sexual llevadas a cabo tanto en esta región como paralelamente en el conflicto de Ruanda, nos permiten establecer un análisis comparativo en ambos espacios, los cuales permitieron comenzar a considerar la violencia contra las mujeres y las niñas como crímenes de guerra.
The Bosnian War (1992-1995) is a paradigmatic conflict for the study of crimes against humanity in armed conflicts, highlighting among them the sexual abuse and rape that many women received during war. As a result of the outbreak of the war, there was an increase of the tensions between different ethnic groups and religions that ended up leading to a real “ethnic cleansing” and the normalization of violence against civilization. Our subject of study focuses on the analisis of the horrors that bosnian women, especially muslim, will have to face, such as the proliferation of camps dedicated to rapes and forced prostitution. The extreme practices of sexual violence thath had place in this región as in parallel in the Rwanda conflicto, allow us to stablish a comparative analysys in both spaces, which enable the recognition of violence against women and girls as war crimes.
