N2  - Feminists have described the community as the source of both oppression and strength. Indeed, whether community is defined as a neighbourhood or a social network, it can be the source 
of both gendered expectations and emotional support. This contradiction is manifested in attempts to create safe space for victims of intimate partner violence, which falls on a 
continuum of addressing interpersonal violence, structural violence, and finding social support for the victim. Communities differ in terms of how much support is offered to victims and how much the community itself is willing to take responsibility for addressing the problem. This article is an attempt to provide a framework for understanding the sparse literature on community and safe space for battered women. (Author's abstract). Record #4901
