For the true exercise of citizenship to occur, gender violence must
be eradicated, as it is not an interpersonal problem, but an attack
on the very concept of democracy. Despite increasing social
awareness and legal measures taken to fight gender violence, it is
still prevalent worldwide. Even in a country such as Spain, praised
in the UN Handbook for Legislation on Violence Against Women (2010)
for its advanced approach on gender violence, the legal framework
has proved insufficient and deeper sociocultural changes are
needed. This book presents, in this respect, groundbreaking
investigations in the realm of politics, activism, and cultural
production that offer both a complex picture of the agents involved
in its transformation and a nuanced panorama of initiatives that
subvert the normative framework of recognition of victims of gender
violence. As a result, the book chapters articulate a construction
of the victim as a subject that reflects and acts upon his/her
experience and vulnerability, and also adopt perspectives that
frame accountability within the representational tradition, the
community, and the state.
