| dc.description.notes | General Overview: This Australian article applies an intersectional feminist framework to the understanding and theorising of men's violence against women in refugee communities.<br/ ><br/ >Discussion: This Australian article begins with a literature review that examines issues of patriarchy, culture and the unique circumstances faced by refugee women, such as trauma, language barriers, social isolation and discrimination, in relation to their experience of male violence. It then explores the appropriateness of applying western feminist analyses to domestic violence in culturally and linguistically diverse communities. The authors argue that in recent decades western feminist theory has increasingly accommodated diversity through the exploration of how the intersections of race, gender and class impact on marginalised women.<br/ ><br/ >The article then applies this theory of the intersectionality of oppressions to understanding and responding to men's violence against women in refugee communities. The authors suggest that an intersectional analysis can assist in identifying the similarities and differences between men's violence against women in diverse communities and to understanding the complex and compounding factors that contribute to refugee men's violence against women. The authors conclude that, while 'culture' can never be used to defend violent behaviour, factors relating to culture, masculinity and oppression must be taken in to account to enable more complex analyses of and responses to the compounding factors that can make refugee families vulnerable to violence. | en |
