| Sumario: | This chapter explores the connections between private and public patriarchal confinement, utilising the life history narratives of 18 imprisoned Thai women. More specifically, through the women’s voices, all of whom lived with/through and in anticipation of intimate partner violence (IPV), we describe how the patriarchal punishment endured in private led to state-sanctioned caging. We begin by calling attention to IPV as a human rights violation supported through law and legal systems impervious to women’s experiences. We note the IPV victimisation-criminalisation nexus and observe the larger programme of research from which these women’s stories came. From here, we overview the women’s backstories and map how the brutal course of men’s violence across/within their lives culminated in their imprisonment. Finally, we reference the women’s prison experiences and reflect on the need for change. |
