The main aim of the Swedish Women's Peace reform in 1998 was to enhance criminal legal protection for women exposed to violence in heterosexual relationships and to promote gender equality. However, these ambitions risk being contravened in a masculinist criminal legal system. One problem concerns how the victim is constructed in criminal legal cases. The author argues that moral balancing and discourses of responsibility and guilt in Swedish cases constrain the agency possible for women and suggest that a more comprehensive policy in Sweden must be developed to include violent men, their agency, and their responsibility for the violence.
1998 年瑞典妇女和平改革的主要目的是加强对异性关系中遭受暴力的妇女的刑法保护,并促进性别平等。然而,这些目标在男权主义刑法体系中存在被违反的风险。其中一个问题涉及到在刑法案件中如何构建受害者。作者认为,瑞典案件中的道德平衡以及责任和罪责的话语限制了妇女的代理可能性,并表明瑞典必须制定更全面的政策,包括暴力男性、他们的代理以及他们对暴力的责任。
