TY - JOUR PY - 2023// TI - Through an intersectional lens: prevalence of violence against disabled women in Iceland JO - Violence against women A1 - Snæfríðar-Og Gunnarsdóttir, Hrafnhildur A1 - Traustadóttir, Rannveig A1 - Einarsdóttir, Thorgerður A1 - Rice, James G. SP - ePub EP - ePub VL - ePub IS - ePub N2 - Using an intersectional lens, this study analyses data from a nationally representative sample in Iceland, examining violence among marginalized groups of different social locations. The results highlight the precarious position of disabled women and show a significant increase of risk of violence with each marginalized social location women inhabit.

RESULTS illustrate how precarity and exposure increases for multiply marginalized women, demonstrating the importance of considering the social dimensions of violence. The article argues for the importance of advancing critical dialogue and research on violence, using an intersectional frame and including factors such as disability, gender, sexual orientation, and financial strain.
