Abstract

This study is based on the inequality that women experience in digital spaces and the oppression and anxiety in their lives. In addition to the violence that women experience in the private or public sphere, they also experience some difficulties in the digital field. The fact that people spend more time in the virtual environment, and the increase in their use of smart phones and the internet has led to the transfer of violence against women to digital platforms. The aim of this research is to keep the issue on the agenda due to the increasing trend of digital violence, to systematize studies in the academic field and to guide future research. For this purpose, systematic literature review method was used in the research. The relevant literature on digital violence/digital violence and women has been reviewed, studies have been defined and analyzed. It has been seen that the studies are mostly society and culture-oriented, and digital violence is frequently studied together with social media, partner violence, domestic violence, pornography, sexual harassment. Studies have been systematized according to the types of digital violence against women. In this direction, comments were made according to the findings and suggestions were made for future research.

DİJİTAL ŞİDDET VE KADIN: ARAŞTIRMALARIN SİSTEMLEŞTİRİLMESİ VE GELECEK ARAŞTIRMALARA YÖNELİK ÖNERİLER

Abstract

Bu çalışma, kadınların dijital ortamlarda yaşadıkları eşitsizlik ile yaşamlarındaki baskı ve kaygıyı temel almaktadır. Kadınlar özel ya da kamusal alanda yaşadıkları şiddetin yanı sıra dijital alanda da bazı zorluklar yaşamaktadırlar. İnsanların sanal ortamda daha fazla zaman geçirmesi, akıllı telefon ve internet kullanımlarının artması kadına yönelik şiddetin dijital platformlara taşınmasına neden olmuştur. Bu araştırmanın amacı, artan dijital şiddet eğilimi nedeniyle konuyu gündemde tutmak, akademik alanda yapılan çalışmaları sistematize etmek ve gelecekte yapılacak araştırmalara yön vermektir. Bu amaçla araştırmada sistematik literatür taraması yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Dijital şiddet/dijital şiddet ve kadın ile ilgili literatür taranmış, çalışmalar tanımlanmış ve analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmaların daha çok toplum ve kültür odaklı olduğu, dijital şiddetin sosyal medya, partner şiddeti, aile içi şiddet, pornografi, cinsel taciz ile birlikte sıklıkla işlendiği görülmüştür. Çalışmalar kadına yönelik dijital şiddetin türlerine göre sistematize edilmiştir. Bu doğrultuda elde edilen bulgulara göre yorumlar yapılmış ve ileride yapılacak araştırmalar için önerilerde bulunulmuştur.
