| dc.description.notes | Drawing upon interviews conducted with 15 South African women who had experienced domestic violence, this article explores the manner in which victims attribute meaning to their experiences and the role of socio-cultural mechanisms and social context in contributing to these constructions. A feminist post-structuralist approach to violence against women is adopted to analyse, understand and explain women’s subjective experiences and, whilst women’s agency and resistance to violence is acknowledged, so too is the salience of discourses of masculine power and ideological contradictions in women’s narratives. Advocates the development of discourses capable of continually placing individual experiences within their social, economic, political and ideological context. | en |
