Abstract

Gender and race-based political violence constitutes a political-informational phenomenon that interferes with public visibility, the legitimacy of candidacies, the circulation of political discourse, the preservation of evidence, and institutional accountability. This article aims to present a theoretical-methodological framework, based on the concept of Information Regime, feminist studies on gender and race-based political violence, and Brazilian normative frameworks, for the analysis of violence directed at women and racialized groups in Brazilian elections. The research is characterized as exploratory, bibliographic, documentary, and propositional, with a qualitative approach. As a result, a matrix composed of 14 analytical dimensions is presented: Political subjects affected; Intersectional markers; Position and scale of the dispute; Type of delegitimization; Environment of occurrence; Digital violence and personal data; Narratives of attack; Circulation and amplification; Institutions and parties; Materiality of evidence; Legal framing; Political-informational effects; Memory and counter-recording; and Strategic indicator. It is concluded that gender and race-based political violence should not be analyzed merely as an isolated occurrence, but as an informational process involving the production, circulation, recording, classification, preservation, and institutional use of information.
