Abstract
Based on socio-historical research of domestic violence treatment in the cantons of
Vaud and Geneva, this article analyses how the co-presence of many actors and approaches
has affected the definition of intimate partner violence (IPV) in Switzerland. IPV policies
centred on gender and then reframed to define violence as a complex issue. We show what
the consequences of framing complexity for policy are.
