The Path of Least Resistance: A Qualitative
Exploration of Economic/Financial Abuse of Upper and Middle-Class Women in Uganda.
REFNo: SS3322ES
Domestic abuse is often framed in terms of physical violence, which often overlooks non-physical forms of abuse, such as economic or financial abuse. This research focuses on the dominant framing of domestic abuse as primarily physical violence and examines how this framing affects the recognition and response to economic/financial abuse, particularly among middle and upper-class women in Uganda. While public discourse tends to emphasize physical violence, this study seeks to expand the understanding of more subtle, yet potentially more damaging, forms of non-physical abuse like economic violence. The effects of non-physical forms often manifest over time, making it harder to link cause and effect, unlike the more immediate impacts of physical violence.
Through a qualitative approach that combines in-depth interviews, key informant interviews, and discourse analysis, the study aims to illuminate how framing influences the recognition of, and responses to, economic/financial abuse. The research is grounded in an applied behavioral lens and draws on Daniel Little’s “microfoundations” approach, which emphasizes the importance of understanding individual behaviors and decisions as foundational to broader social phenomena. By focusing on micro-level foundations, this research explores how individuals’ interpretations of domestic abuse shape their responses to economic/financial abuse.
This study focuses on upper and middle-class women—by deliberately selecting deviant or outlier cases that challenge traditional theories, we aim to uncover new causal variables or mechanisms that have been previously overlooked, particularly in relation to how domestic violence is framed primarily as physical, leading to the under-recognition of economic violence. This narrow view may be contributing to the rising incidence of violence against women and children in Uganda.
This thesis challenges conventional prevention strategies by calling for the creation of social mandates that address the underlying conditions and “contextual opportunities” that enable abusive behaviors. Drawing on social disorganization theory, the study seeks to highlight the far-reaching effects of economic/financial abuse on community cohesion and social control, ultimately contributing to a more nuanced understanding of domestic abuse and promoting more holistic approaches to its prevention and accountability.
Specific Objectives:
Identify patterns, perceptions, and narratives surrounding economic/financial abuse among middle and upper-class women, to understand the personal and broader societal impact of this form of abuse.
Examine the alignment or divergence between these women’s experiences and dominant public discourse on domestic abuse, particularly regarding the recognition of economic/financial abuse.
Analyze how the framing of domestic abuse influences the perceptions and responses of professionals and community members toward economic/financial abuse.
Explore strategies for reframing domestic abuse, aiming to make economic/financial abuse more salient and recognized in both policy and practice.
Propose actionable measures to strengthen community accountability in preventing domestic abuse by incorporating economic/financial abuse into the broader understanding of domestic violence.
