From Scandal to Awareness
Relational Safety and Transactional Intervention
This article explores what safety means to women experiencing intimate partner violence (IPV). From a feminist relational lens, we explore data from in-depth, narrative interviews with women who experienced severe IPV and perspectives of family and friends of those who were killed, to identify experiences that feel safe and those that do not. Other research focuses on ways and factors that enhance safety, whereas ours allows the exploration of di…
Our stories are different but our situations are the same”
Purpose This study aims to explore the gendered nature of housing insecurity by investigating how gender affects women’s experience moving from transitional to market housing. By describing women’s pathways out of supportive or transitional housing support, the authors show how patriarchal forces in housing policies and practices affect women’s efforts to find secure housing. The authors argue that gender-neutral approaches to housing will fail t…

Using a governmentality perspective, the paper illustrates the parallels betwe…
Regulating Intimacy
This article describes the findings of research into judicial decision making in Ontario courts in cases of intimate violence against women. Judges are condemning the violence, issuing relatively harsh sentences, and arguing that the intimate context of the violence is an aggravating factor. The analysis also reveals that judges often rely on stereotypes and traditional notions of marriage, family, and femininity. As records of decisions, the doc…
