description

This chapter, by referring to the gender-violence binomial, highlights some of the dynamics between “resistant victims” and “proximate perpetrators” which characterize proximity violence. It presents the results of research consisting in participant observation of 18 sub-Saharan women residing in refugee facilities located in western Sicily and 16 non-directive interviews, from which three cases have been extracted.
