Abstract

The subject of this article is denial of gender-based violence. The author discusses the formulation of the definition of this concept and proposes a hypothetical scheme of possible manifestations of the denial of gender-based violence. The basis of this scheme lay the assumption that negation not is always simultaneously affected, and violent, and gender aspects of the situation. Depending on how comprehensive is the denial, differentiated between partial and full versions of the discussed phenomenon. The question is raised about the practical need to take into account not only a meaningful interpretation of gender-based violence, but also direct emotional responses to the collision with this phenomenon. The proposed assumptions regarding the possible psychological mechanisms of denial of gender-based violence, the perspectives of future empirical research in the designated area. It is pointed out, in particular, the need for further study of the denial of gender-based violence in people directly involved in what is happening and observing violence from outside.
