This article challenges the limits and possibilities of articulation, as well as how to “use” woman, gender, crime, and violence in the theoretical-methodological design of a research on gender relations in schools in regions with high incidence of reported crimes against women. Reports filed in a given Specialized Police Station for Attending to Women were mapped to select a series of schools, in order to highlight the need to identify and problematize how women, gender, crime, and violence are used as categories by determining if they were considered “endogenous” or “exogenous” regarding the theorizations encompassing this survey. This process also demanded the discussion of the term “gender violence”, based in this text on concepts of gender, violence, and power. Amid instances of approximation and distancing, it was possible to recognize the theoretical-methodological effects of such categories on the survey processes, as well as the ethical challenges of using tools that produce geographies regarded as “violent”.

Keywords : Violence; Gender; Gender based on violence; Kernel mapping.
