This qualitative research identifies and analyzes emotions linked to affective experiences and cultural aspects of experiences of violence in 219 older adults of eight Indigenous groups in Oaxaca, Mexico. Life stories are examined from perspectives of cultural gerontology, anthropology of emotions and critical medical anthropology with a gender perspective. Family violence, structural violence in daily life, gendered violence, inter-village and state violence, blood vengeance and the contribution of male alcoholization are examined. An understanding of the experiences of violence in the lives of older adults permits an improved knowledge and understanding of the emotional culture, social problems and the community.
