Abstract

This article discusses an intervention for rehabilitation of female survivors of violence that reconceptualizes rehabilitation through a feminist lens: the Sampoornata model of Dance Movement Therapy, which has been created and is being practiced by an NGO called Kolkata Sanved in Kolkata, India. Feminist rehabilitation is seen as a perspective which, in contrast to dominant rehabilitation praxis, recognizes that individual experiences of violence are embedded in patriarchal social structures and aims for survivors to internalize a sense of agency by deconstructing internalized patriarchal norms that legitimize violence against women and girls and stigmatization of survivors. The article highlights how Sampoornata enacts feminist rehabilitation through the medium of the body. Survivors reclaim the body from patriarchal control and reflect on the embodied experience in order to question patriarchal norms, remove self-blame, and negotiate a space for themselves within society.

摘要

本文讨论了一种通过女权主义视角重新定义康复概念的暴力女性幸存者康复干预措施：舞蹈运动疗法的Sampoornata模式，该模式已由印度加尔各答的一个名为 Kolkata Sanved 的非政府组织创建并正在实施。女权主义康复被视为一种观点，与主流康复实践相反，它承认个人暴力经历植根于父权社会结构，旨在通过解构使暴力侵害妇女和女孩行为合法化的内在父权规范，使幸存者内化一种代理感和对幸存者的污名化。这篇文章重点介绍了Sampoornata如何通过身体的媒介制定女权主义康复。幸存者从父权制的控制中收回身体并反思具体的经验，以质疑父权制规范，消除自责，并在社会中为自己协商一个空间。
