Scholars acknowledge that women oppose male intimate partner violence (IPV). Yet there is limited comprehensive knowledge regarding how women’s bodies and embodiment, that is, their physical and emotional practices and the cultural and social systems that influence them, figure in this process. Our scoping review helps fill this gap by analyzing and synthesizing 74 research articles published in English-language scholarly journals between 1994 and 2017 to address three research questions: (1) How does existing IPV research conceptualize resistance? (2) To what extent do the body and embodiment appear in this research? and (3) What common themes emerge from investigation of the role of embodiment and the body in the context of IPV? The articles identify several subtypes of resistance strategies including avoidance, help-seeking, violent action, and leaving a violent relationship. The reviewed research also regularly describes women’s physical and emotional states in the context of IPV. Only a small number of these texts, however, define or conceptualize embodiment. Our analysis of the manner in which the body figures in women’s resistance to IPV yielded four themes: (1) the active body, (2) the injured/constrained body, (3) the interactive body, and (4) the transformative body. We conclude with a discussion of policy and practice implications, such as the need to increase awareness about how institutions enforce embodied norms among victims and use the body to assign blame and/or proffer assistance in the context of IPV.

在女性抵制亲密伴侣暴力的背景下理解身体和体现:范围界定审查

学者们承认女性反对男性亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)。然而,关于女性的身体和体现,即她们的身体和情感实践以及影响她们的文化和社会制度如何在这一过程中发挥作用的综合知识有限。我们的范围界定审查通过分析和综合 1994 年至 2017 年间发表在英语学术期刊上的 74 篇研究文章来解决三个研究问题:(1) 现有 IPV 研究如何将阻力概念化?(2) 身体和具身在本研究中出现的程度如何?(3) 在 IPV 背景下对具身化和身体的作用的调查出现了哪些共同主题?这些文章确定了抵抗策略的几种子类型,包括回避、寻求帮助、暴力行为、并离开一段暴力关系。审查的研究还定期描述女性在 IPV 背景下的身体和情绪状态。然而,只有少数这些文本定义或概念化了体现。我们对女性抵抗 IPV 的身体形象方式的分析产生了四个主题:(1)活动的身体,(2)受伤/受限的身体,(3)互动的身体,以及 (4)变形的身体。我们最后讨论了政策和实践的影响,例如需要提高对机构如何在受害者中执行具体规范的认识,以及在 IPV 的背景下使用身体来分配责任和/或提供帮助。
