On March 8, International Women's Day is celebrated. It is a date that commemorates the struggle of women to increase their participation in society, which goes hand in hand with their full development as people. However, after so long struggling in that regard, the number of achievements they have made is still insufficient. Even when the feminine has become visible in many spheres (political, scientific, artistic, sports, etc.), there are still many obstacles to overcome so that the emancipation of women is full.

Femicide remains one of the main problems in society, especially in Mexico, and it seems that there is no clear strategy to prevent it and, where appropriate, to prosecute it effectively. The news regarding the increase in this crime accumulates day after day, while The competent authorities deal with other issues, instead of designing policies aimed at preventing crimes linked to misogyny and machismo, notions rooted in a country that must free itself from prejudice and achieve absolute equality for its entire population.This issue of the  RMCP contains, for the most part, texts that reveal concern about the disadvantageous position of women in Mexico, despite the progress made in terms of female participation in many fields. In addition to celebrating the exemplary life of Ruth Bader Ginsburg through a portrait, issues such as political gender violence, child feminicide, the reactions caused by the exhibition of images of Ingrid Escamilla's body, the lack of public policies to contain the femicide, etc. The point, perhaps, is to exhibit the disinterest that arouses the development of women who, emulating Ginsburg in some way, struggled for a promising future, and whose progress was interrupted from one moment to another, having been murdered by their gender. In any case, it is necessary to imagine how much society loses if women do not have the protection they deserve and that, without a doubt, the State and the male sector must provide them.
