The Price of Women's Freedom: Economic Abuse, Coping Strategies, and the Paths to Empowerment - Paperback

Economic abuse against women represents a form of domestic violence, often intertwined with other forms of abuse, making it a complex and pervasive issue. Unlike physical or sexual assault, economic abuse operates through control and manipulation of a woman's financial resources, ultimately undermining her autonomy and trapping her in abusive relationships. The emotional and financial strain of such abuse can have lasting effects on a woman's mental health, her ability to secure housing, and her overall quality of life. This study investigates the multifaceted issue of economic abuse against women, exploring its profound impact on their autonomy and well-being, and examines the various coping strategies, shedding light on women's resilience and resourcefulness. Hopefully, to promote a more supportive and equitable environment where women are empowered to achieve financial independence and encourage policymakers to develop targeted interventions!
