Abstract
Ce travail porte sur la littérature américaine sur les violences conjugales. Plusieurs grandes enquêtes ont été menées par des chercheur-e-s aux orientations théoriques différentes (violences familiales versus violence contre les femmes), et les résultats de ces enquêtes ont fait l’objet de débats. Cette revue de littérature entend restituer ces débats – sur la symétrie de genre et la bidirectionnalité des violences, sur leur définition, sur leur étiologie, sur leur traitement pénal – afin de contribuer à la construction de l’objet « violences conjugales ». La réprobation que suscitent ces violences constitue un objet d’analyse en soi.Keywords
