The intention of this thesis was to understand why and how women organized or participated in peaceful movements aimed at stopping collective, organized male violence in the public sphere. Historical archives were used to examine four social movements – Mothers of Plaza de Mayo, Greenham Common Peace Camp, Committee of Soldiers’ Mothers of Russia, and the Antimafia Movement – that attempted to end violence from male organizations. The findings from this thesis discovered that through the process of framing, which was permitted by increased power obtained in society through the workforce, women took a peaceful, self-invested, but overall altruistic, role in social movements.

Повний текст джерелаA presente pesquisa tem como objetivo discutir repercussões da violência conjugal como violência psicológica contra crianças e adolescentes, considerando a exposição da prole em espaços de convivência familiar onde a dinâmica de violência entre o (ex) casal parental é presente e frequente. Para tanto, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa, através da análise de quatro casos atendidos em uma unidade de referência da rede de proteção a mulheres vítimas de violência doméstica no município do Rio de Janeiro. Os resultados demonstram a persistência de segmentação da rede de atendimento, desfavorecendo a abordagem da família em sua complexidade e dificultando a garantia, concomitante e integrada, dos direitos humanos de mulheres vítimas de violência conjugal e de seus filhos quanto às repercussões destes conflitos como expressão possível de violência psicológica.
The following research aims to discuss repercussions of domestic violence as well as psychological violence against children and adolescents, considering offspring exposure to family dynamics of frequent violence between parents. To do this, a qualitative study was conducted by analyzing four cases in a women s domestic violence treatment unit in Rio de Janeiro. The results demonstrate the continued segmentation of the service network, compromising the complexity of a family approach and making it difficult to guarantee the concurrent and integrated human rights of women domestic violence victims and their children on the impact of these conflicts as possible expressions of psychological violence.

Повний текст джерелаThis doctoral dissertation is divided into three chapters. The first one is related to health economics, and the second and third analyse violence against women. In the first chapter, co-authored with Jaume Puig-Junoy and Marcos Vera-Hernández, we estimate the price-elasticity of prescription drugs exploiting three unique features of the Spanish health system (1) the co-payment of prescription drug drops from 40% (10% for chronic diseases drugs) to 0% upon retirement, while the co-payment for the rest of health care services remains constant; (2) retirement jumps discontinuously at age 65, the legal retirement age, which allows us to use a Regression Discontinuity design to disentangle price from selection effects; and (3) absence of deductibles or caps in yearly or monthly out-of-pocket expenditure, which simplifies the computation of elasticities. We use administrative data from all individuals aged 63-67 covered by the National Health System in Catalonia (Spain) from 2004-2006. We find that the price-elasticity of prescription drugs is -0.20 for non-chronic condition drugs, and -0.08 or -0.03 for chronic conditions drugs. Given the size of our estimates, they remain informative even if we interpret them as being possibly biased away from zero (for reasons discussed in the paper). We also find a small increase in the expenditure on medically inappropriate drugs due to the decrease in co-payments. In the second chapter I explore the historical origins of violence against women. Compared to previous literature, which has only paid attention to short-term determinants of domestic violence, this study looks at long-term determinants. It analyzes the relationship between historical family types (stem vs. nuclear) and intimate-partner violence (IPV). In stem families two generations cohabitate as one son stays at the parental house with his wife and kids, whereas in nuclear families all children leave to start their independent households. I model the behavior of a traditional peasant family and show how co-residence with the mother-in-law (a feature of stem families) increased the wife’s contribution to farming work. This in turn could decrease the level of violence since in the model it reduces wife’s productivity. In the empirical analysis I use Spanish data as this country not only offers IPV measures of the highest quality but also stable and persistent family types. Results show that territories where stem family was socially predominant in the past have nowadays a lower IPV rate. I control for a large number of contemporaneous, historical and geographical variables. To address causality, I use the Christian “Reconquest” of the Iberian Peninsula (722-1492) as an instrument for the different family types. Finally, in the third chapter I explore the link between unemployment and domestic violence. Despite the general perception that domestic violence increases with recessions, the evidence is inconclusive. This study contributes to this literature by analysing the relationship between intimate-partner violence (IPV) and unemployment using individual IPV data for Spain. It also contributes by including in the analysis the gender identity, which is determined by the historical family types (stem vs. nuclear) that prevailed in each region. I exploit regional and time variation in female and male unemployment and find heterogeneous impacts of unemployment on IPV. In territories with more traditional gender roles (nuclear family), a decrease in female unemployment relative to male unemployment is associated with an increase in the IPV incidence, potentially because men feel their traditional gender role threatened. In provinces with more equal gender roles (stem family) this effect is offset. I also find that unemployment has a higher and significant impact on economic and structural abuse rather than on physical and sexual violence.

Повний текст джерелаDomestic violence or intimate partner violence is increasingly being recognized as a problem that seems to be spiralling out of control. The causes of domestic violence have preoccupied scientists for several decades. The hypothesis that domestic violence might be biologically determined was significantly undermined by observations that its occurrence varies considerably between, as well as within, societies. The aim of this study was to add to the growing, but still rather fragmented, body of knowledge in South Africa on violence against women. This study seeks to analyze domestic violence from an angle whereby the data can be explored to find factors contributing to women experiencing domestic violence in South Africa. The objectives of this research are to measure the prevalence of physical, sexual and financial abuse and to identify a profile of women who have experienced domestic violence.

The purpose of this study was to conduct extensive research on domestic violence against women in Pakistan and to present the results in a comprehensive document. Some of the issues investigated through fieldwork and covered here include the social and cultural reasons for violence against women, the ways in which the women are victimised, the extent of this violence and its implications for the victims and society at large. Emphasis was placed on the review of shortcoming of laws for protection of women. At the end, detailed recommendations were made for practical steps in which women can be given more legal protection, and society can be sensitised to the rights of women. It was found that some of the major reasons for violence against women include treatment of women as objects and property, legitimisation of cruel practices through tradition and misinterpretation of religion, and patriarchal nature of society that enables men to reinforce their social power through subjugation of women. While around 80% of Pakistani women are reported to face some form of domestic violence every year, horrific crimes such as honour killings, acid burnings and marital rape are also quite common. There are several absurd practices such as exchanging of women to settle tribal disputes and selling them to payoff debt, which depict the treatment of women as commodities. The violence against women goes unchecked because of an unjust legal system that leads to unfair settlements and custodial violence against women. The brutalisation and torture of women has several negative impacts that start with the continuous fear and feelings of worthlessness among the victims. Large-scale mistreatment of women forces economic backwardness on them and creates widespread gender-disparity
(cont.) in the country. There are several possible measures that should be taken to stop the self-perpetuating and vicious cycle of violence against women. These include gender-training programs for law-enforcement and judicial personnel, the addition of materials that teach the importance of equal rights of women in school and college curricula, and a large-scale collaboration between the government and the private sector to create support and shelter facilities for women in distress. Other steps such as constitutional amendments to abolish biased laws and to incorporate gender-neutrality in civil jurisdiction are very important as well. Though the overall picture is quite bleak for women in Pakistan, there are some rays of hope through isolated cases in which society has supported victimised women and the legal system has dispensed justice. Overall, this report is a manifesto for improving the plight of millions of battered women in Pakistan who deserve social justice.

Повний текст джерелаGender issues, especially in South Africa, have over recent years moved decisively into the public domain. In this context intimate violence by men of their women partners, so long shrouded in silence, is now being hailed as one of our most serious and prevalent social problems. But despite this awareness the circumstances which underpin this sort of violence remain controversial and obscure and its effective management elusive. This study explores some of the factors which may promote or protect against its use in order to identify which would both assist individuals personally affected by personal violence as well as influence any societal factors which perpetuate it. This study uses the words' wife abuse', 'wife beating', 'spouse abuse' and 'intimate violence' interchangeably to refer to violence towards women by their intimate male partners whether they qualify strictly as 'husbands' or not. The report starts with a brief review of selected literature on the topic of intimate violence. The context of the current study and the pilot work is then discussed. Following this, the Domestic Violence Survey, the core of this report is introduced and the results presented. Finally a brief discussion brings together some of the major findings and makes some tentative suggestions for future investigations.

Повний текст джерелаRealizamos o presente estudo em uma ONG que trabalha com mulheres vítimas de violência domestica, localizada no município de Duque de Caxias, o CDVida-Centro de Defesa da Vida, no período de agosto à dezembro de 2004. O nosso objetivo foi identificar na trajetória de vida dessas mulheres, os motivos que as levaram a permanecer tanto tempo em situação de violência, qual o fato que contribuiu para a quebra do silencio e em que momento elas decidiram procurar ajuda. O levantamento nos arquivos da instituição, do perfil demográfico de 60 mulheres atendidas no primeiro semestre de 2003, nos revelou o grande número de mulheres que permaneciam em situação de violência após longo período de vida em comum. Partindo desse estudo inicial, escolhemos entrevistar algumas mulheres vítimas de violência por parte de seus parceiros íntimos e que ainda se encontravam em atendimento pela equipe técnica do CDVida, objetivando entender os motivos que levaram a permanecer por tanto tempo convivendo com seus parceiros violentos. As informações colhidas nas entrevistas nos possibilitou conhecermos a percepção das mulheres em relação a violência sofrida; as conseqüências da mesma e as dificuldades enfrentadas para romper com a relação. A análise dessas informações nos levou ao entendimento de que a violência doméstica entre parceiros íntimos, é revestida de um caráter muito especial, uma vez que envolve além de laços de intimidade e afeto, na maioria dos casos, a presença dos filhos do casal, que sofrem da mesma maneira que suas mães, as conseqüências da violência. Concluímos ainda a partir dessa análise, que romper com a violência significa romper com a própria dinâmica do seu ciclo que aprisiona e paralisa a mulher. Para romper com esse ciclo, é necessário não só que a mulher encontre apoio para a superação de suas dificuldades individuais , mas também respostas institucionais para que possa exercer plenamente seus direitos enquanto cidadã.
We carried out the present study in an NGO which works women, who are victims of violence in the municipality of Duque de Caxias, the CDVida - Centro de Defesa da Vida ( Center for Protection of life), from Aug to Dec 2004. Our aim was to identify the trajectory of life of these women, the reasons which led them to stay so long in situation of violence, the fact which contributed to breaking the silence, and in which moment they decided to look for help.The data found in the institution files, of a demographic profile of 60 women, trated in the first semester of 2003, revealed the great number of women who remained in situation of violence, after long living together. Starting from this initial study, we chose to interview some women, victimized by their intimate partners, and who were still under treatment by the technical team of CDVida, aiming at understanding the reasons for remaining so long, living with their violent partners. The information colleded from interviews made it possible to know the perception of the women in relation to the violence suffered: the consequences of this, and the hardships found in breaking up the relationship.The analysis of this information led us to understand that domestic violence between intimate partners is characterized in a very special manner, since it involves, besides the ties of intimacy and affection, in most cases, the presence of children of the couple, who suffer in the same way as their mothers, the consequences of violence. Furthermore, we concluded, from this analysis, that ending with violence means ending with the own dynamics of its cycle, which controls and paralyses the woman. To end up this cycle, it is necessary that the woman is not only supported to overcome her individual difficulties, but also find institutional answers in order to carry out thoroughly her rights as citizens.

Повний текст джерелаAbstract Palestinian women face enormous challenges in terms of enjoying and exercising human rights, as a result of the legal and cultural heritage prevailing in the region that permits the violation of women's rights, encourages violence against them, and deprives them of their right to access justice, especially in the absence of a homogeneous national legislative system that protects the rights of women as human rights. This constitutes a fundamental contradiction to the international obligations imposed on Palestine as a state party to the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women "CEDAW". Therefore, the present thesis aims to identify the deficiencies in the field of the substantive and procedural criminal protection of Palestinian women's rights in the face of violence, to inform the means of economic and political empowerment of women, to refer to international mechanisms in the face of violence against women, and to harmonize Palestinian legislation for these mechanisms. This is done in order to advance the status of Palestinian women and achieve justice and equality. Chapter One discusses the extent of the criminal protection of women's right to life, physical integrity, and sexual freedom, by analyzing and criticizing the legal provisions that protect these rights in order to show their deficiencies in discrimination against women on the basis of sex, and the deficiencies in ensuring the full protection of women against violence as required by international human rights conventions and charters. Chapter Two discusses the legal and factual obstacles and challenges that limit the abilities of women who are victims of violence to access justice. This is done by highlighting negative practices related to administrative arrest and detention in safe houses, and the legal restrictions and gaps related to the complaint. In addition, it focuses on the position of the criminal justice agencies on cases of violence against women, the way they deal with battered women and their complaints, and their adherence to the laws and respect for human rights standards. Measures to strengthen the criminal protection of women's rights in the face of violence are discussed in Chapter Three the last chapter. This is done by adopting mechanisms for the legal empowerment of women in order to achieve harmony with international human rights standards, and to achieve legislative harmonization with CEDAW, through discussing the rationale of enacting a law to combat violence against women and the obstacles to the adoption of the law to date, and ways to achieve redress for victims. Other aspects of women empowerment are not neglected. In particular, the political empowerment of women is discussed by focusing on ensuring their participation in voting, running in elections, and highlighting the importance of their participation in decision-making. In addition, the economic empowerment of women is achieved by ensuring their right to inheritance, work, and joint funds on an equal basis with men to equip women with the weapons necessary to confront and eliminate violence.
