Abstract

Since the 1990s, the international humanitarian system has developed approaches, tools, and standards for addressing gender-based violence (GBV) in emergencies premised on the survivor-centered approach (SCA). Utilizing critical discourse analysis, we explore how articulation of SCA within humanitarian discourse aligns with its stated intent to return control to survivors. The analysis reveals that humanitarian system power dynamics distort the application of SCA, leaving humanitarian service providers in charge of assessing the best course of action or severely limiting survivors' choices. We propose a survivor led approach as more aligned with the feminist and transformative goals of humanitarian action against GBV.

谁是性别暴力人道主义响应的中心？以幸存者为中心方法的批判性话语分析》。

自 20 世纪 90 年代以来，国际人道主义系统在以幸存者为中心的方法（SCA）的前提下，制定了在紧急情况下应对性别暴力（GBV）的方法、工具和标准。利用批判性话语分析，我们探讨了人道主义话语中对 SCA 的表述如何与其将控制权交还给幸存者的既定意图相一致。分析表明，人道主义系统的权力动态扭曲了 SCA 的应用，让人道主义服务提供者负责评估最佳行动方案或严重限制幸存者的选择。我们提出了一种以幸存者为主导的方法，这种方法更符合反对性别暴力的人道主义行动的女权主义和变革性目标。
