Abstract
This conclusion examines how feminist musical practices in Spain and Greece function as vital modes of witnessing, mourning and resistance in the face of femicide and gender-based violence. Drawing on parallel yet distinct national contexts, the book demonstrates that music operates as a political, ethical and affective practice that challenges institutional silences and supplements incomplete legal responses. In Spain, musical genealogies from María Jiménez to Rozalén intersect with memory politics and advanced, though uneven, legislative frameworks. In Greece, musical activism emerges amid inconsistent institutional protections and highly publicised cases that expose structural misogyny. Across both sites, music generates affective publics, sustains feminist counter-memory, enacts cultural citizenship and circulates within transnational feminist soundscapes shaped by Latin American movements. The conclusion also foregrounds tensions between cultural visibility and institutional change, the volatility of digital publics and the limits of affect, arguing that musical activism offers indispensable yet partial forms of justice beyond the law.
