- Honor-related violence (HRV) has usually been framed within the broader spectrum of Violence Against Women either as part of men’s violence against women or as a specific form of violence linked to an honor culture. In Sweden, HRV has been analyzed from different perspectives such as the cultural perspective and the gender perspective. The first describes HRV as something specific, separated from domestic violence. The violence is interpreted as an expression of a non-Western honor culture. The latter focuses on women's vulnerability and defines HRV as part of a universal patriarchal structure. Violence is interpreted as one – by many – expressions of men's structural dominance. In an attempt to avoid cultural stereotypes, the intersectional perspective has, in recent years, emphasized the relationship between different power structures such as gender, ethnicity, class and nation. This polarization means, on one hand, that violence within ethnic minority families has been linked to culture; on the other hand it has been presented without a link to culture.
