Abstract
AbstractViolence is intertwined with a gendered logic, encompassing physical, sexual, structural, cultural, and symbolic dimensions. However, this association becomes even more complex within the context of refugees and forced migration. This chapter delves into the conceptual and theoretical framework surrounding multidimensional gendered vulnerabilities and violence in the context of forced migration. It explores key concepts integral to my discussion, including Galtung’s conceptualisations of violence (direct, structural, and cultural violence), Bourdieu’s theory of symbolic violence, and sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) and vulnerabilities. Additionally, this chapter examines intersectionality and the continuum of violence framework to deepen our understanding of gendered vulnerabilities and violence in forced migration contexts.
