| dc.description.notes | This article discusses the importance of culture in the US context of domestic violence. It suggests that to work effectively with diverse cultural groups, a full continuum of services that includes eliminating the violence as well as keeping families together would be needed. It explains the concept of worldview and the relative looseness or tightness of a culture or their levels of tolerance for diverse behaviour: individualist cultures tend to be looser and more accepting of individual choice; tight collectivist cultures have specific norms that regulate social interaction and strong negative consequences such as shame or a loss of face. It suggests that a woman socialised with tight collectivist values may not have the same level of access to divorce, independent living or single parenthood. American Muslim women were briefly discussed. Another cultural factor that influences a woman’s experience of intimate partner violence is her relationship to the host society, such as her immigration, colonisation or acculturation status. It questions the Western, feminist values underlying the service options reflective of the dominant individualist service system. It proposes that the harm reduction models used in the HIV/AIDS area be applied to intimate partner violence for the development of a full continuum of non-judgemental options to lower a woman’s risk for violence, including those who are not likely to leave the relationship, along with adopting safety rather than leaving as the outcome. | en |
