Gender and Violence in Haiti

Women's Path from Victims to Agents

Beschreibung

Provides a study of the women who have been caught up in the widespread violence plaguing Haiti. Drawing from the experiences of a diverse group of Haitian women, Faedi Duramy finds that both the victims and perpetrators of violence share a common sense of anger and desperation. Untangling the many factors that cause these women to commit violence, she identifies concrete measures that can lead them to feel vindicated and protected by their communities.
