dc.description.notes"In the early 1970s, feminists began to raise awareness about intimate partner violence (IPV),<br/ >transforming it from a private family matter into a social problem. Popular media<br/ >representations of IPV, which exposed the extent and severity of the problem, played a key<br/ >role in this transition. Surprisingly, however, there has been very little research on media<br/ >representations of IPV or intimate partner homicide (IPH). This thesis conducts a critical<br/ >discourse analysis on recent media representations of abused women who kill their abusive<br/ >partners in law procedural dramas, a genre of television that both commands a wide primetime<br/ >audience and impacts viewers' understanding of the legal system. I argue that the<br/ >common representational tropes used in these episodes actively harm abused women by<br/ >constructing only abuse narratives that reinforce misogynistic tropes as valid and by suggesting the legal system meets abused women's needs."<br/ >Open accessen
