摘要：AbstractIn this paper I analyze the interrelation between gender-based violence in intimate relationships and social exclusion, a subject virtually ignored by literature. More concretely, I study the mechanisms that lead battered women to social exclusion. In this way I discover that an experience of violence can easily result in exclusion from labor market and housing as well as social isolation. These findings induce me to call public institutionś attention to this matter, and to underline the importance of reinforcing the existing economic aids for battered women but also of the necessity of introducing new job placement programs and other activities.
