O knihe
Domestic violence (intimate partner violence) is a common phenomena in most societies in Africa and is rooted in culture. Society justifies the discrimination of women as weaker gender and the existing norms reinforce the status quo. Women are supposed to be decision followers rather than makers. Any violation of the gendered norms results into the woman being punished and in most cases the punishment is in form of beating, or dismembering of some parts like arms, fingers etc and extremes brutal murdering of spouse. While such violence is on the surge, states have put in mechanisms to curb such violence including laws, but enforcement has been the problem since the enforcers also grew up in the same environment and see nothing wrong. On the other side of the story the victims, even if they report the violence, end up living with the perpetrators for years on, suffering. This project set to find real answers to why the victims remained in violence despite being given options and platforms to leave. It seeks to explain the stay in violence beyond the conventional responses that are given by women in violence.
