摘要

我们对禁止对妇女施暴的法律为什么会被通过的了解,比对这些法律对社会影响的程度和方式了解得更多。作者认为,即使是执行不力的法律也能促进积极的社会变革。他们将法律的表达能力理论化,并提供证据,对目前暴力侵害妇女行为的趋势和法律对社会规范的影响方式进行谨慎乐观的评估。本文聚焦于墨西哥与《反暴力法》相关的重大法律变革时期,通过分析四波全国家庭关系动态调查(endireh),探讨了与暴力相关的行为和态度的趋势,其中包括对数千名墨西哥妇女的详细采访。作者发现,在此期间,遭受亲密伴侣虐待的女性比例下降,宽恕暴力的态度转变,报告率上升,大多数女性都了解了保护自己权利的立法。这些变化与笔者对反暴力立法表达力的期许是一致的。

Expressive Power of Anti-Violence Legislation
abstract We know more about why laws on violence against women (vaw) were adopted than about how much and in what ways these laws affect society. The authors argue that even weakly enforced laws can contribute to positive social change. They theorize the expressive power of vaw legislation, and present evidence for a cautiously optimistic assessment of current trends on violence against women and the ways that vaw laws affect social norms. Focusing on a time of major legal change related to vaw in Mexico, this article explores trends in behavior and attitudes related to violence by analyzing four waves of the National Survey on the Dynamics of Household Relations (endireh), which include detailed interviews with thousands of Mexican women. The authors find that over this period, the share of women experiencing intimate-partner abuse declined, attitudes condoning violence shifted, reporting rates rose, and most women learned about legislation to protect their rights. These changes are consistent with the authors’ expectations about the expressive power of anti-violence legislation.
