| Summary: | This chapter examines the violence that falls outside predominant legal, jurisdictional and/or geographical boundaries. In illuminating violence that is not often seen, we focus on accountability for both the violence itself and for ensuring that this violence is largely unseen. The key questions that underpin this chapter are who and what sustains gendered violence, and who is responsible for it. We examine how temporary visa holders experience DFV and violence that is produced via state systems, border crossings and policy. We then consider the state's responsibility and the failure of state mechanisms to hold perpetrators to account. We detail the ways in which perpetrators are protected by the migration system in Australia and the consequences of this, including the reproduction of silence around the extent of violence temporary migrants experience at the hands of current or former partners and family members. |
