Resumen
- This article contributes to the emerging literature on economic abuse as intimate partner violence, using Colombia as a case study. Our analysis of Colombia's 2015 National Demographic and Health Survey indicates that factors associated with individual and household contexts, including number of children, marital status, education, and wealth, are significant in understanding economic abuse. We found a close relationship between economic abuse and physical and psychological violence. Interventions to prevent and redress economic abuse should focus on women's economic empowerment, and shielding them from physical and psychological violence is crucial to guaranteeing women's rights and their families’ well-being.
