This article draws on qualitative research examining domestic violence against women with insecure immigration status in England and Sweden. Empirical data were collected through in-depth semistructured interviews with 31 survivors from 14 non-European Union (EU) countries, and 57 professional stakeholders including 19 support service providers. This article reveals a multilayered process of actualizing women's right to live free from violence, with survivors required to be formally eligible for services according to their immigration status, having to prove their eligibility, overcome informal barriers including the fear of deportation, and gain access to accurate information about their rights and services.
本文借鉴了对英格兰和瑞典境内遭受家庭暴力的无合法移民身份妇女的定性研究。实证数据通过对来自14个非欧盟国家的31名幸存者以及包括19名支持服务提供者在内的57名专业利益相关者进行深入的半结构化访谈收集而来。本文揭示了实现妇女免受暴力侵害权利的多层次过程，幸存者需要根据其移民身份正式符合服务资格，必须证明其资格，克服包括被驱逐出境恐惧在内的非正式障碍，并获取有关其权利和服务的准确信息。
