abstract="In this article, I demonstrate some of the complexities of the &quot;pragmatics of inclusion&quot; that ensue when subordinated people first struggle to gain access to hegemonic institutions and then challenge those institutions to maintain their inclusion. In presenting these findings, I reconsider the meaning of agency for persons seeking legal redress from domestic abuse in Trinidad and reassess the power and limitations of domestic violence law as a symbol and instrument for social change, [domestic violence law, agency, legal processes, kinship and gender ideologies, Caribbean]<p />",
