Abstract

This article advances an interpretation of gender and fear of violence based on feminist post-structuralist theory. The authors explore the interweaving of 'embodied discourses', 'investments' in subject positions, and emotion. They illustrate their discussion through an exploratory analysis of the ways in which a sample of male and female university students describe their experiences of physical and sexual danger in urban space. The authors interpret the accounts they offer in terms of multiple subject positions embodied in the context of gendered power relations. In so doing they offer a fresh perspective on the geography of women's fear.

具身话语:论性别与暴力恐惧

本文以女性主义后结构主义理论为基础，对性别与暴力恐惧进行了阐释。作者探讨了“具身话语”、主体位置的“投资”和情感的交织。他们通过对一组男女大学生描述他们在城市空间中身体和性危险经历的方式的探索性分析来阐明他们的讨论。作者从性别权力关系背景下体现的多重主体立场来解读他们所提供的描述。这样一来，他们就为女性恐惧的地理分布提供了一个新的视角。
