Abstract

Bu çalışma son yıllarda kadın cinayetleri sayısında önemli bir artış görülen Türkiye’deki aile içi şiddeti analiz etmektedir. Ülke genelinde kadın nüfusunu temsil eden zengin bir mikro veri setinin analizi, bize kadınların partnerlerine kıyasla gelir ve eğitim durumlarının çeşitli aile içi şiddet türlerine etkisi olduğu bulunmuştur. Ayrıca, evlilik özellikleri de kadının göreli üstünlüklerinin aile içi şiddete etkisinde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Genel olarak, bu çalışma göreli kaynak teorisini desteklemekte ve aile içi pazarlık modelinin ise Türkiye örneğinde geçersiz olduğunu tespit etmektedir.

Do Relative Status of Women and Marriage Characteristics Matter for the Intimate Partner Violence?

Abstract

This paper analyses intimate partner violence in Turkey which faces an enormous increase in femicide cases over the last decade. Analyzing a very rich nationwide representative survey, we show that relative status of women in terms of income and education affect different types of domestic violence, ranging from emotional abuse to physical and sexual violence. Besides, factors related to marriage setting have a significant role in the effect of women’s superior status on intimate partner violence. Overall, we provide evidence to support the relative resource theory and invalidate the intra-household bargaining model in the Turkish case.
