Roxani Krystalli published a chapter conducting a feminist analysis of narrative approaches to researching violence in the Handbook on Gender and Violence, edited by Laura J. Shepherd.

She states, “In this chapter, I explore how what we know about violence changes when we take narratives seriously. To do so, I draw from a growing feminist tradition of narrative research – and I ask what is feminist about these approaches. I argue that engaging with narratives is not only a methodological choice, but also an ethical posture: a curiosity about knowledge and an orientation towards power.”
