Sumario:The objective of this work is to analyze the discursive representation of gender violence against women in order to make visible patterns and trends in communication and in legal discourse. Violence can be seen as an unresolved conflict that leads to physical aggression. However, unlike a direct hit, it configures a multipolar social, political, economic and cultural process that can also harm invisibly and equally effectively. The corpus of work is made up of Argentine laws on the protection of victims of family violence and the letter that Claudia Schaeder's femicide read on the last day of the criminal trial that sentenced him to life. For the analysis of the corpus, we will take as a basis systemic functional linguistics (Halliday, 1985; Halliday and Hasan, 1985; Martin and White, 2004) with a critical and interactional perspective (Fairclough, 2003; Goffman, 2001, 1981; Pardo and Carrizo, 2018; van Leeuwen, 2008) integrating the argumentative and strategic dimension of the discourse (Carrizo, 2019; Menéndez, 2005, 2019). The preliminary results show strategies that include linguistic and interactive resources that, at different levels of the system, accompany the dehumanization process that characterizes violence.
